Forecasts

Bill Cody (2/1), Good Impression (7/2), Sotomayor (4/1), Font Vert (7/1), Feragust (9/1), Gunnar Julius (12/1), Rosedale Topping (14/1), Arlecchino's Arc (33/1)

Verdict

Good Impression comes into this in better form than most, but there are concerns he will be as effective at this trip and on this surface. Gunnar Julius and Rosedale Topping are probably capable of better than we have seen so far and will need to be monitored in the market. BILL CODY had shown nothing prior to his handicap debut last time, but that run indicated he was on a decent mark and capable of repaying some of his hefty price tag. It would be disappointing if he failed to win a race as uncompetitive as this.
