Forecasts

I Am A Dreamer (1/1), Bengali Spirit (9/4), Mayson Mac (3/1), The Great Heir (7/2), Lippy Lady (10/1)

Verdict

Clearly tricky enough given that we have only pedigrees and training records with two-year-olds to go on but the former leads us to suggest I AM A DREAMER as the potential debut winner in this line-up. Mark Johnston also has the best record of the handlers involved in here and the most expensive horse in the line-up could be primed and ready to begin repaying his purchase price straight away. Mayson Mac and The Great Heir probably make more appeal as sprinters than Bengali Spirit.
