Forecasts

El Romiachi (7/2), Spartan Warrior (11/2), Fantasy Flower (7/1), Trattoria (7/1), Belle Of Belize (8/1), Lets Talk (8/1), Me Time (17/2), After Hours (9/1), My Kingdom (9/1), Soul Of Wit (9/1), Theroseofbecharre (16/1), Feather The Nest (18/1), Louvain (20/1), Silly Fella (22/1), Midnight Badger (22/1), Blue Spark (25/1), Riccardo (25/1), Golden Tune (40/1)

Verdict

ME TIME has quite a significant edge on form and is a straightforward selection. Fantasy Flower can also play a major role, while Theroseofbecharre is also in the running for some place money at least.

  1. ME TIME (SAF)
  2. FANTASY FLOWER (SAF)
  3. THEROSEOFBECHARRE (SAF)
