Forecasts

Hurricane Bay (4/9), Imperial Merlin (15/8), Scrum Diddly (22/1), Medicine Wheel (200/1)

HURRICANE BAY shaped like the likely winner for much of the straight in the Grade 2 River Don 3 weeks ago and a repeat of that performance will very likely get the job done back in novice company. Imperial Merlin will hopefully ensure the race is a competitive one.
