Forecasts

Marty The Party (9/4), Air Commander (5/2), Cardinal Zin (13/2), Snellen (9/1), Going Remote (10/1), Spanish Flame (12/1), Starliner (12/1), Gibbs Island (18/1), Port Louis (28/1)

Verdict

CARDINAL ZIN showed much improved form on handicap debut when just edged out at Gowran on his comeback on Wednesday and has obvious claims off the same mark if this doesn't come too soon. Air Commander rates a useful prospect and looks the main threat ahead of Port Louis.

  1. CARDINAL ZIN (IRE)
  2. AIR COMMANDER (IRE)
  3. PORT LOUIS (IRE)
