Forecasts

Crocodile Power (11/5), Viva Voce (3/1), Hoi An Beach (11/2), Bobby Shaftoe (7/1), Time To Parley (9/1), Kraken Florida (10/1), Zarina Grande (12/1), Lady Lou (14/1), Milliemix (33/1), Ben Asker (40/1), Jessie Allan (50/1)

VIVA VOCE's track position in a slowly-run race meant he could never land a significant blow over C&D 3 weeks ago but he needs treating as though still in form and this is a drop in class. Crocodile Power and Hoi An Beach head the opposition.
