Forecasts

Finespun (13/8), Sharp Suited (7/4), Harbour Front (11/2), Ice Pyramid (8/1), Melburnian (16/1), Gabriel Oak (22/1), Bobba Tee (33/1), Ska Ridge (50/1), Drums Of War (100/1), Mount Barina (100/1), Battle Commander (150/1)

Finespun is respected as she gets weight from the boys and doesn't have much to find; but a chance is taken that BOBBY TEE just has an edge on the form of his effort over 1m here earlier in the month and, as he's already raced over further than this, his stamina advantage might be the crucial ingredient. Sharp Suited and Ska Ridge are closely matched but the former looks the more solid option at this stage and is rated as the main danger to the selection. Harbour Front would also be of interest if money arrives to back up his claims.
