Forecasts

Star Of Wins (11/8), Tritonic (5/2), Emissary (10/3), Thibaan (13/2)

A small but select field for this feature contest with none of the quartet ruled out. STAR OF WINS gets the narrow vote to come out on top having made the perfect start to life in handicaps when scoring in game fashion at Sandown last month. He can complete the hat-trick with the promise of more to come. Alan King's Tritonic just shades the forecast spot, ahead of Thibaan.
