Forecasts

Sarah (2/1), Risk Taker (2/1), Double 'O' Eight (6/1), Golden Belle (6/1), Before The Dawn (8/1), Che Bella (14/1), Pool Party (14/1), Eskimo Kisses (14/1), Sheer Talent (20/1), See You Tyger (33/1)

Verdict

RISK TAKER showed much improved form on her latest run and is well up to winning this. Double 'O' Eight seems the principal challenger, while Pool Party can't be ruled out of it either.

  1. RISK TAKER (SAF)
  2. DOUBLE 'O' EIGHT (SAF)
  3. POOL PARTY (SAF)
