Forecasts

Gateau De Miel (15/8), Salmanino (5/2), Politicise (6/1), Fierami (15/2), Hardwired (17/2), Native Gold (11/1), Cast Iron (25/1), Coolcullen (28/1), The Last Throw (28/1), Trickey Trix (40/1), Shamror Lass (100/1), Lamberton Legend (200/1)

GATEAU DE MIEL suffered a fall last time but is the clear pick on form, so this rates an excellent opportunity. Politicise is feared most back over fences ahead of chase-debutant Salmanino.
