Forecasts

Mighty Power (11/4), King Tiger (5/1), Shuv H'penny King (6/1), Ivynator (6/1), Host (13/2), Wurlitzer (17/2), Lightening Shore (11/1), Stay Coul (20/1), Laxton Ladd (22/1), Pablo Prince (28/1)

A wide-open handicap in which MIGHTY POWER makes most appeal. He's caught the eye in two runs this year and he should have more to come. Pablo Prince has ran creditably in novice and maiden company and could have more to offer on handicap debut. Host was a little unlucky last time and has to be considered.
