Forecasts

Bobby Joe Leg (5/4), Broctune Red (9/4), Dramatista (11/4), Moxy Mares (7/1), Cmon Cmon (7/1), Katsonis (12/1), Mudawwan (14/1)

DRAMATISTA has been going well and could reverse recent form with the hat-trick seeking Broctune Red down in trip and come out on top. Moxy Mares lurks on a dangerous mark, while Bobby Joe Leg won over C&D last month and also has to be taken seriously.
