Forecasts

Sekhmet (4/6), Timeforthat (11/2), The Makwakkers (7/1), Signals (8/1), Elusive Swann (11/1), Simply Complicated (14/1), Comet Crystal (18/1), Valencia (20/1), Golden Tune (33/1)

Verdict

SEKHMET was a shade disappointing when favourite last time out, but gets the vote again. Comet Crystal is probably the sternest threat, while Simply Complicated shouldn't be ruled out.

  1. SEKHMET (SAF)
  2. COMET CRYSTAL (SAF)
  3. SIMPLY COMPLICATED (SAF)
