Forecasts

The Eagle's Nest (2/1), Charlie Arthur (5/2), Mister Music (3/1), Noble Account (8/1), Kentuckyconnection (10/1), Zodiakos (20/1)

Hard to rule many, if any, of these out and it has the look of a tricky contest that could be made trickier still by the lack of a front runner. Charlie Arthur looks the most likely for the role and will take some catching if repeating his latest run, but ZODIAKOS ran well to a point in that race until weakening late, and he may well have needed that run, his first since September. He looks on a winnable mark and may reverse the form. Mister Music ran a cracker on Saturday night and a repeat surely takes him close, and both The Eagle's Nest and Noble Account can have solid cases made for them.
