Forecasts

Seehaam (6/4), Wisteria Walk (5/1), Magic School (6/1), Mount Laurel (7/1), Lily Blue (15/2), Rio's Winter (8/1), Wylie Wench (10/1), Mary O (14/1), Destinys Game (25/1), Castellano (28/1), Virginia (40/1), Querari Ferrari (40/1), Sheer Talent (40/1)

Verdict

RIO'S WINTER has put together a solid series of efforts lately and should make a bold show. Wylie Wench is hard to ignore in the search for second, while Destinys Game can't be ruled out of it either.

  2. WYLIE WENCH (SAF)
  3. DESTINYS GAME (SAF)
