Forecasts

Royal Village (3/1), Bestwork (5/1), Seefood (6/1), The Fresh Prince (7/1), Aunty Ann (8/1), Dr Robin (8/1), Pawn Star (10/1), Mr Shantu (10/1), Altiepix (33/1)

Verdict

The consistency of Pawn Star can’t be faulted but he may just need this run coming back from a long absence and the market will be the best guide to his chance. Aunty Ann looks to have paid rather harshly for her win last time in what appears to have been a weak race and Bestwork isn’t sure to get the easy leads he usually craves here. With The Fresh Prince also returning from a break this looks best left to ROYAL VILLAGE who dead-heated last time and the wind op appears to have worked the oracle for him.
  1. Royal Village
  2. The Fresh Prince
  3. Aunty Ann
