Forecasts

Platinum Sky (5/2), Ball Rolling (10/3), Valencia (7/2), Secret Giver (9/2), Call Me Master (6/1), Bold Resolve (15/2), This Generation (10/1), Monsoon Kenny (14/1), Dance Partner (16/1), Kings Cup (22/1), Cherokee Chief (28/1), One Block (33/1)

Verdict

CALL ME MASTER couldn't meet market expectations last time, but looks the one to be with once again. Bold Resolve rates the main danger, while Kings Cup commands respect as well.

  1. CALL ME MASTER (SAF)
  2. BOLD RESOLVE (SAF)
  3. KINGS CUP (SAF)
