Forecasts

Bahama Moon (11/4), Alexander M (7/2), Itsakindamagic (4/1), Al Destoor (13/2), Gabrial's Kaka (7/1), Jabbaar (10/1), Mutamaded (12/1), Gulf Of Poets (25/1), Pumaflor (33/1)

Verdict

Once again not an easy race to sort out although if Alexander M grabs an easy lead he may well be very hard to pass and he's very much respected especially with Franny Norton on board who rides this track so well. Mutamaded might still have some improvement left in him with Gabrial's Kaka also dangerous to leave out of the equation given his reduced mark and form around this track. BAHAMA MOON is given the vote though having won easily here last time and he still looks well weighted on his old form with conditions to suit. Jabbaar isn't out of this either despite a poor run earlier in the week, this looks a more suitable test.
  1. Bahama Moon
  2. Alexander M
  3. Jabbaar
