Forecasts

Mutasaabeq (11/8), Modern News (3/1), Megallan (9/2), Zakouski (9/1), Finest Sound (12/1), Escobar (18/1)

A good renewal of this Group 3. MODERN NEWS is a 4-y-o who is heading in the right direction and can add to his Spring Cup and Windsor listed wins in recent months. Mutasaabeq looked unlucky not to win the Group 2 Sandown Mile last time and he can provide the chief threat ahead of Megallan.
