Forecasts

One Way Traffic (2/1), Crimson King (10/3), Black Knap (4/1), Holy Warrior (10/1), Salvator Mundi (10/1), Doublemint (14/1), Sudden Star (14/1), Warrior Bling (14/1), Magnificent Seven (25/1)

Verdict

CRIMSON KING failed to justify market support last time out, but gets the nod again. Black Knap is tough to ignore in the search for second, while Holy Warrior could well have a say as well.

  1. CRIMSON KING (SAF)
  2. BLACK KNAP (SAF)
  3. HOLY WARRIOR (SAF)
