Forecasts

Miss Matterhorn (2/1), Rodnee Tee (9/4), Probable Cause (4/1), Call Me Cheers (10/1), Cenario (10/1), Stone Princess (10/1), Dark Side Division (16/1), Sassy Lassy (20/1), Chromium (40/1), Little Devil (40/1), Mumsbirthdaygirl (150/1)

RODNEE TEE has run well on both starts so far and he is the selection to register a second career success in this novice contest. The selection ran well under a penalty last time out and he can get the better of Probable Cause who represents a yard who have made an exceptional start with their juveniles. Third place can go the way of Cenario who represents a good yard on debut.
