Forecasts

Ilhabela Fact (4/1), Aventuriere (13/2), Dangerous Ends (13/2), Jack D'Or (13/2), Casual Reply (7/1), Broken Rifle (8/1), Songo (17/2), Angels Roc (9/1), Double Legend (12/1), Reeceltic (22/1), Shoot To Win (50/1)

ILHABELA FACT went close over C&D last time and is well worth a chance to build on that given he continues to look well treated on last year's best form. Mark Johnston's Aventuriere could be a dangerous opponent now handicapping from a low base on her return from an absence, particularly if the betting speaks for her. Broken Rifle is also on the shortlist.
