Forecasts

Gala Ball (13/8), Valdez (5/2), Foxtail Hill (7/2), Cobra De Mai (7/1), Got Away (10/1)

Verdict

Considering his absence GALA BALL ran remarkably well to finish second here in a more valuable contest than this last time out. That form alone would give him every chance but surely he should come on for the run too so is confidently picked here. Foxtail Hill ran better at Warwick latest and the fact he's now 9lb below his last winning mark can't be forgotten. Got Away is and Cobra De Mai are very closely matched in a race where none of the five are easily dismissed.
  1. Gala Ball
  2. Foxtail Hill
  3. Got Away
