Forecasts

Meyandi (5/2), Luv U Whatever (4/1), Take Two (7/1), Art Of Swing (7/1), Jersey Jewel (7/1), Firestorm (10/1), Manny Owens (14/1), Elusive Cowboy (16/1), Party Royal (18/1)

Verdict

Quite a competitive opener with the amateurs getting their chance and the booking of Simon Walker means that Elusive Cowboy will be popular. Take Two is consistent but hard to win with while for all he ran well on turf last time Luv U Whatever has still to win on this surface. Party Royal looks to be one who should be looked at off this mark but its MEYANDI who takes the eye on his handicap debut with the trip expected to suit.
  1. Meyandi
  2. Party Royal
  3. Luv U Whatever
