Forecasts

Courtland (5/4), Balko Saint (3/1), Kauto The King (7/2), Umndeni (6/1), Sholsang (7/1), Ragamuffin (18/1)

It might be worth taking a chance on COURTLAND bouncing back to form as he's come down a long way in the weights and his stable is going pretty well at present. Balko Saint is second choice ahead of last year's winner Kauto The King.
