Forecasts

Back To Bataan (5/2), Nodoubtaboutthat (7/2), Influential Lady (5/1), Mollyella (11/2), Springsteen's Girl (17/2), Romella (10/1), Echoes Of Family (10/1), Rossmore's Pride (12/1), Rockview Emperor (16/1), King Con (20/1), Orchard Grove (22/1), Roses Queen (25/1), Sao Paulo (33/1), Afternoonwithsusan (33/1), My Peggy (40/1), Bintheredonethat (50/1), Gimligonnabelucky (66/1)

BACK TO BATAAN has posted a couple of creditable efforts this season and in what looks a pretty bleak contest, should be able to get his head in front now under another positive ride. The bulk of the remainder are struggling for form but Mollyella and Influential Lady have performed respectable at least once this season, so they're perhaps the main threats.
