7/1

Forecasts

Frow (10/3), Aramis Grey (9/2), Velvet Vista (9/2), Blame Culture (11/2), Skontonovski (6/1), Last Date (7/1), Dourado (17/2)

An uncompetitive affair and LAST DATE could bounce back from his disappointment here last time. A first time visor could perk him up and he makes most appeal. Frow shouldn't be far away on his recent efforts and rates as the main danger. Aramis Grey can't be ruled out either.
