Forecasts

Push Off (11/8), Crown Guardian (4/1), Ice Eater (6/1), Procrastinator (6/1), Harrys Secret (15/2), Liquid (8/1), Corvette Captain (9/1), Galactic Warrior (10/1), Inherit The Rain (10/1), Segontium (12/1), Starflash (14/1), Louis The Seventh (14/1), Tiki Taka (20/1), Zephira Rain (80/1)

Verdict

LOUIS THE SEVENTH ran well last time and should give another good account. Push Off is fancied as the best alternative, while Inherit The Rain is perhaps the most interesting of those left.

  1. LOUIS THE SEVENTH (SAF)
  2. PUSH OFF (IRE)
  3. INHERIT THE RAIN (SAF)
