Forecasts
Kasimir (7/4), Van Halen (11/2), Chimichuri Run (7/1), Warrior's Rest (9/1), Russet Air (9/1), Fabian (10/1), Chantyman (14/1), Eden Roc (16/1), Invidia (20/1), Cartel Captain (25/1), Donderweer (28/1), Sunset Eyes (50/1), Speedpoint (66/1), Down To Zero (66/1)
KASIMIR looked an improved animal on his latest start and has leading claims. Russet Air is hard to ignore in the search for second, while Chimichuri Run is another with a place chance too.
