Forecasts

Largo Bay (10/3), Big Little Lie (10/3), Smokey Malone (7/2), Sherpa Trail (5/1), Torbellino (6/1), It's How We Roll (8/1), Luna Wish (66/1)

SMOKEY MALONE shaped as though still in top form when third here 12 days ago having been denied a clear run and he makes plenty of appeal, eased 1 lb. Largo Bay has been in good order on the AW here of late and is a definite threat,
