Forecasts

Dark Shift (4/7), Motorious (5/1), International Girl (13/2), Mellencamp (7/1), Cape Columbus (14/1), Dragon's Fire (20/1), Solomons Judgement (40/1), Adaay To Remember (50/1), Ireland's Eye (50/1), Raffles Rebel (50/1), Niagara (50/1), Cable Guy (66/1), Heer's Sadie (200/1), Monsieur Fantaisie (200/1), Jessie Pye (250/1)

Verdict

A fairly one-sided looking affair to open the card with DARK SHIFT setting a clear standard far above that of his rivals in form shown to date. He should be able to return from his winter break to gain a second career victory here. Motorious looks the most likely to trouble him after a gelding operation. International Girl makes most appeal of the remainder.
