Forecasts

Dark Travel (11/10), Miracle And Wonder (7/2), Flinders Range (7/1), The Makwakkers (8/1), Mckenna Skye (12/1), Eastern Belle (14/1), Speechmaker (16/1), Kapama (16/1), Savage Love (20/1), Brooklyn Bridge (25/1), Stupefy (33/1)

Verdict

DARK TRAVEL appeals best of these by a narrow margin but has little margin for error. Savage Love is the most realistic next preference, while Mckenna Skye heads up those chasing third place.

  1. DARK TRAVEL (SAF)
  2. SAVAGE LOVE (SAF)
