Forecasts

Beauty Choice (15/8), Kapono (7/2), Tintoretto (13/2), Unforgiving Minute (8/1), Chookie Dunedin (10/1), Tin Hat (11/1), Baby Steps (14/1), Jackstar (18/1), Salateen (25/1), Yuften (25/1), Tilsitt (50/1)

BEAUTY CHOICE is a consistent sort who has been in fine form over C&D of late and is difficult to oppose after a 2 lb rise for his latest second. Tintoretto hasn't disgraced himself in recent starts and has to be considered from a low draw. Chookie Dunedin loves it here and can never be ruled out in these events.
