Forecasts

Tenth Amendment (5/2), Mandarin Monarch (7/2), High Kicker (6/1), Shake The Bucket (10/1), Any Time (10/1), Freedom Chimes (10/1), Sin Sin (12/1), Creative Talent (12/1), Circling Moon (14/1), Mack Miller (16/1), Rock On Rosie (16/1), Molly Kaye (16/1), California Lad (20/1), Go Complain (20/1), Tildas Icon (25/1), Streak (40/1), Molten Gold (50/1)

TENTH AMENDMENT is taken to land the last, beaten a nose in a C&D handicap recently and can continue his progress here. High Kicker and Mandarin Monarch can give the selection the most to think about while Circling Moon can outrun his price on Polytrack debut in first-time cheekpieces.
