Forecasts

Power of Darkness (11/4), Via Serendipity (5/1), Another Batt (5/1), Zhui Feng (15/2), Nicholas T (15/2), Zwayyan (9/1), Original Choice (12/1), Waarif (12/1), War Glory (14/1), Nicklaus (14/1), Enigmatic (16/1), Breden (25/1)

Verdict

POWER OF DARKNESS got his head back in front last time out when getting the better of Nicklaus and with the potential of more to come from the four-year-old, he rates as the one to beat. Another Batt can't be ruled out if he gets home over this trip from a nice handicap mark. Original Choice is another who has become well-handicapped.
  1. Power of Darkness
