Forecasts

Zolfo (7/4), Againn Dul Aghaidh (4/1), Old Salt (5/1), Border Breaker (6/1), Desert Sensation (6/1), Alderbrook Lad (8/1), King Golan (9/1), Braavos (12/1), Just Minded (25/1)

Verdict

Most of these are out of form so OLD SALT has a good chance to return to winning ways having shaped as though in need of the run after a four-mnth break at Perth last time. On previous efforts he has solid claims. Zolfo looks the main danger. He appeared to be on his way to victory when falling last time and has every chance if he jumps a clear round. Desert Sensation is potentially well weighted if able to recapture some form, while the in-and-out Againn Dul Aghaidh flopped last time but may figure if he gets out of bed on the right side.
  1. Old Salt
  2. Zolfo
  3. Desert Sensation
