Forecasts

Good Time Ahead (4/1), Shaw's Cross (9/2), Agent Empire (5/1), Talimar Pearl (11/2), Tik Tok (7/1), Privatory (7/1), Pak Army (8/1), Zillion (9/1), Loudspeaker (10/1), Coconut Twist (11/1), Demothi (12/1), Daany (22/1)

Verdict

GOOD TIME AHEAD is in good order and this race lacks depth, so he looks like the most solid proposition. Tik Tok is a likely improver on handicap debut and a return to form from Privatory wouldn't be a huge surprise given how well his stable has been going lately.
