Forecasts

Diego Du Charmil (5/4), Beau Bay (9/2), Maestro Royal (5/1), Vocaliser (7/1), Darebin (8/1), Ashoka (9/1), Free Stone Hill (12/1)

Diego Du Charmil essentially got back on track last month when following home Saint Calvados in the Kingmaker, he is conceding weight all round now switched to handicaps though and won't want to see any rain. The consistent Beau Bay on the other hand will relish a soft surface and is in good tune while Vocaliser is also likely to have a say in matters. It is hard to know how strong the form of MAESTRO ROYAL's chase wins will prove, but he's done things very easily to now and merits respect going into handicaps. He can get the job done for the champion trainer.
