Chewbaca³⁸

Weight: 9-6| Age: 6

T: Willem Nel J: Donovan Dillon

Forecasts

Chewbaca (4/1), Hey Bill (9/2), King's Cove (9/2), A Whole New World (5/1), Lucretius (6/1), Twice The Flight (6/1), Mingshi (15/2), Majestic Power (9/1), Lord Of The Manor (11/1), Final Occasion (12/1), Sweet William (18/1), Billy Bazooka (25/1), Deputy Marshall (25/1)

HEY BILL has sound claims on form and is going to be tough to beat. Lord Of The Manor can also play a major part, while King's Cove may grab a bit of place money.
