Forecasts

Gallic Chief (11/4), Dyce (3/1), Bon Vivant (11/2), Isivunguvungu (6/1), It's About Time (7/1), Silver Salmon (10/1), Kuuma (16/1), Crested Eagle (18/1), Dockofthebay (20/1), Who's That Star (20/1), Edgartown (22/1), Faustino (22/1), Rodriguez (25/1)

Verdict

DYCE couldn't meet market expectations last time, but still appeals as the likeliest winner here. Bon Vivant is another who could have a big say in proceedings, while Silver Salmon looks best of the remainder.

  1. DYCE (SAF)
  2. BON VIVANT (SAF)
  3. SILVER SALMON (SAF)
