Forecasts

Dutch Uncle (5/2), Tom's Rock (3/1), Ourmullion (5/1), Miss Minuty (5/1), Exceeding Power (10/1), Majrooh (12/1), Van Huysen (14/1), Berrahri (20/1), Camakasi (25/1)

DUTCH UNCLE has been running well of late and he can reverse recent running with Tom's Rock in what looks a competitive contest. The selection has shown greater consistency since joining the stable of Archie Watson late last year and he can record a fourth victory today. Miss Minuty is another who has been running well in recent starts and she can claim third while market support for Berrahri should be noted following a successful spell racing on snow in Switzerland.
