Forecasts

Glacier Gold (2/1), Sound Check (5/2), Querari Ferrari (11/2), Chile Jam (7/1), Encryption (15/2), Dive Captain (8/1), Blue Duchess (9/1), Calandra (28/1)

SOUND CHECK's recent form just about edges this but it's an open race. Glacier Gold can emerge best of the remainder, while Querari Ferrari is also in the running for some place money at least.
