Forecasts

Western Run (11/8), Busselton (11/4), Goodbye Someday (13/2), Heroes Of Renown (8/1), Karl Der Grosse (17/2), Fine Brunello (12/1), Alpine Cobra (28/1), Cosmo's Moon (66/1)

WESTERN RUN produced a useful performance on just his second start over fences when runner-up at Galway 22 days ago and has to be considered the one to beat. Busselton is entitled to improve on his opening effort in this sphere up in trip, while Goodbye Someday may do better still as a chaser.
