Forecasts

Maratha (9/4), Waarif (11/4), Perfect Soldier (7/2), Toga Tiger (8/1), Sumner Beach (12/1), Harlequin Striker (12/1), First Up (16/1), Cricklewood Green (16/1)

This tricky handicap can fall to the Irish raider PERFECT SOLDIER who on balance has porbably the best profile coming into this contest. If they go a good pace then slow starter Waarif might pick them off close home, and Maratha is another potential player if he sees out this longer trip. Old Toga Tiger should run his race but again might have to settle for a place at best.
