Forecasts

Aces (11/2), Al Qahwa (11/2), Brian The Snail (6/1), Shanghai Glory (7/1), Watchable (7/1), Teruntum Star (8/1), Boy In The Bar (12/1), Ashpan Sam (12/1), Reputation (12/1), Quench Dolly (16/1), Holiday Magic (20/1), George Dryden (25/1), Manshood (25/1), Russian Realm (33/1), Compas Scoobie (40/1), Tavener (50/1)

Verdict

It might be worth taking a chance on BRIAN THE SNAIL who was frustrating to follow last year but has had a wind operation and may improve. Al Qahwa looks like David O'Meara's first-string and should run well while Shanghai Glory is back on a nice mark and may be capable of bouncing back.
  1. Brian The Snail
  2. Al Qahwa
  3. Shanghai Glory
