Forecasts

Bob Mahler (4/6), Rhaegar (2/1), Brascoe (20/1), Rowdy Robin (20/1), Sunny Destination (20/1), Shanroe Tic Tec (22/1), Hills Of Connemara (40/1), Sting In His Tail (50/1)

Verdict

Not a lot of strength-in-depth to this and in the hope that wind surgery and the fitting of cheekpieces prove positives, BOB MAHLER is given the vote. Admittedly, he has had a few chances, but he also has the most solid CV in this line-up and he would not be winning out of turn. Rhaegar has to shrug off a below par effort last time, but if he can then he would be a danger. Brascoe is worth a market check along with Rowdy Robin, though the battle for the frame may lay between Sunny Destination and Shanroe Tic Tec.
