Forecasts

Torno Subito (13/8), Mayaadeen (5/1), Dirilis Ertugrul (9/1), Fawaareq (10/1), Final Rock (11/1), Untold Secret (16/1), Al Barez (16/1), Shanghai Tong (16/1), Chosen Mark (16/1), Imprison (16/1), Maqaadeer (16/1), Antimo (20/1), Sa'ada (22/1), Sea Skimmer (25/1)

TORNO SUBITO was slightly disappointing when favourite last time out but gets the vote again for top jockey/trainer combination. Stable-companion Mayaadeen could be the one to profit if the selection underperforms, while Fawaareq also requires a closer look in a race that Doug Watson may dominate.
