Forecasts

King's Song (7/2), The Jam Man (5/1), Roi De Dubai (11/2), Sonowyouno (11/2), William Du Berlais (6/1), Maple Lawn (13/2), Slicker City (8/1), First To Boogie (25/1), Shakadame (50/1), Rock On Aussie (66/1)

Verdict

Only raised 7lb for a facile 15L win at Perth recently, KINGS SONG appears to have been found a perfect opportunity to continue in a winning vein of form here by trainer-Gordon Elliott. The J P McManus-owned Sonowyouno and the fairly consistent Maple Lawn can give the selection the most to think about while The Jam Man and Slicker City are deserving of closer inspection.
  1. King's Song
  2. Sonowyouno
  3. Maple Lawn
