Forecasts

Justanotherbottle (6/1), Bahamian Sunrise (7/1), Just That Lord (7/1), Boom The Groom (7/1), Tarboosh (7/1), Shamshon (8/1), Midnight Malibu (8/1), Desert Law (14/1), Compas Scoobie (14/1), Aleef (14/1), Harry Hurricane (25/1), Tavener (25/1), Pettochside (40/1)

Verdict

TARBOOSH is still unexposed and given he's versatile with regards tactics and ground, the five-year-old could be the one to side with. Justanotherbottle is a consistent sort who shouldn't be far away while Bahamian Sunrise is a danger to all if he can get an uncontested lead, though that is a little doubtful with Tavener and Desert Law in the line up.
  1. Tarboosh
  2. Justanotherbottle
  3. Bahamian Sunrise
