Forecasts

Atomic Angel (11/2), Better Be Definite (11/2), Guernesey (8/1), Paramaribo (8/1), Rumble B (17/2), Boolamore Classic (17/2), Lahardaun (10/1), Glory Hights (11/1), Dillarchie (14/1), Noble Affair (14/1), Shantou Moon (16/1), Perculator (18/1), Ballin Bay (22/1), Rowdy Rustler (28/1), Mr Mahler (33/1), Something Golden (50/1)

Verdict

GUERNESEY looked back in form with cheekpieces on for the first time when third in a handicap at Perth recently and, faced with a marked drop in grade, he makes plenty of appeal. Last-time-out winner Better Be Definite is a danger and Atomic Angel should give her running again.
