Forecasts

Mamillius (5/2), Arctic Sea (3/1), Sayesse (11/2), Black Caesar (6/1), Sarangoo (7/1), Seprani (9/1), Good Luck Charm (10/1)

BLACK CAESAR has been in decent form of late and he can register his second victory here in this seven runner handicap. The seven-year-old finished third here last time out and can take this at the chief expense of Seprani who can put a disappointing latest effort behind her by finishing runner-up in this. Sarangoo has won over C&D in the past and she can take third.
