Forecasts

Broken Rifle (1/1), Bankawi (4/1), Shine On Brendan (5/1), Steal The Scene (6/1), Broughtons Flare (10/1), Street Poet (18/1), Born To Reason (20/1), Elixsoft (22/1), Seaforth (33/1)

BANKAWI arrives on the back of a couple of good placed efforts and finds herself in a race that might not take much winning, so she gets the nod ahead of last-time-out course winner Broken Rifle, who has a penalty to contend with. Steal The Scene is not discounted.
