Forecasts

Mostahdaf (1/2), Foxes Tales (3/1), Juan Elcano (6/1)

A poor turnout for this Group 3 and it could become tactical. MOSTAHDAF is clearly the one with the potential to make up into a Group 1 performer given the great progress he showed in 2021 and he can take his record to 6 wins from 7 starts.
