Forecasts

Cape Byron (13/8), Tabdeed (2/1), Donjuan Triumphant (9/2), Keystroke (12/1), Raucous (16/1), Good Effort (25/1), Green Power (33/1), Thrilla In Manila (33/1), Richenza (40/1), Rock On Baileys (66/1)

Verdict

A few of these are tilting at windmills and given the prevailing conditions a shock can’t be ruled out especially at the end of a long season. Overall the race does lack depth and with CAPE BYRON having proved himself a more than capable operator at this venue a fourth course victory and a third this year might not be far away; conditions should prove no problem. Tabdeed remains open to further improvement but this does require more and he has to prove himself on ground this testing. Raucous and Rock On Baileys are sound enough performers but if there were to be a shock then Keystroke can’t be ruled out back over 6f.
  1. Cape Byron
  2. Keystroke
  3. Tabdeed
