Forecasts

Do Si Do (15/8), Basetsana (7/2), Ideal Angel (15/2), En Garde (15/2), Wintertime (15/2), Sacred Ibis (9/1), Legend Has It (10/1), Monashada (12/1), Street Dancing (18/1), Sarajevo (25/1), Whole Of The Moon (33/1), Trippin The Stars (100/1)

DO SI DO put up a personal best effort last time out and sets the bar high. Street Dancing is most likely the toughest opposition, while Legend Has It can fight it out for minor honours.
