Forecasts

Warm Oasis (7/2), Thaqaffa (5/1), Sea Tide (7/1), Azam (8/1), Bazooka (8/1), Topamichi (8/1), Graceful James (10/1), First Up (10/1), Fanoulpifer (12/1), Ourmullion (14/1), Sufi (16/1)

Verdict

GRACEFUL JAMES and Thaqaffa both have claims in this event with narrow preference going to the former. He caught the eye staying on steadily last time and with first-time cheekpieces applied this might be the time to catch him. Thaqaffa is in fine form at present and should make another bold bid but will do well to overcome his penalty. Warm Oasis is interesting on handicap debut and any money for him must be noted, while both Ourmullion and Sea Tide also have claims.
  1. Graceful James
  2. Thaqaffa
  3. Sea Tide
