Forecasts

Get Back Get Back (4/6), Technological (11/4), Mack The Man (10/3), Thahab Ifraj (4/1)

Verdict

THAHAB IFRAJ needs to bounce back, but there's a good chance that he will do just that following a break off his last winning mark and with conditions to suit. He shades preference ahead of Get Back Get Back, who returns from a similar absence and the fast ground will also be in his favour. Technological is unexposed in this sphere and merits respect, but Mack The Man, though 3 lb lower than for his C&D success in November, may find conditions too lively.
