Forecasts

Crank It Up (9/4), Storm Commander (5/2), Against The Grain (9/2), Oscar Wilde (5/1), Royal Escapade (11/2), Diorama (16/1), Dan The Lad (22/1), Wylie Wench (25/1), Waqaas (28/1), Samurai Jack (33/1)

Verdict

CRANK IT UP couldn't send favourite backers home happy last time, but still appeals as the most obvious option. Against The Grain makes most appeal of the rest, while Royal Escapade is also an interesting runner.

  1. CRANK IT UP (SAF)
  2. AGAINST THE GRAIN (SAF)
  3. ROYAL ESCAPADE (SAF)
