Forecasts

Duke Of Swing (9/4), Second Base (11/4), Ice Man Cometh (4/1), Shortstop (10/1), Melchizedek (11/1), Thandekhile (12/1), Bangor Night (12/1), Hot Gossip (12/1), Strikeitlikeamatch (18/1), Roksolana (28/1), March To Glory (33/1), Musaytara (33/1), Axios (40/1), Gonnafly (66/1)

Verdict

HOT GOSSIP's recent runs have been likeable on the whole and she is up to winning this. Thandekhile could provide the chief opposition, while Melchizedek is also an interesting runner.

  1. HOT GOSSIP (SAF)
  2. THANDEKHILE (SAF)
  3. MELCHIZEDEK (SAF)
