Forecasts

Hammies Hero (15/8), Champion Warrior (9/4), Narina Trogon (5/1), Tout A Fait (11/2), Prevalence (8/1), Van Hunks (16/1), Galactic Path (20/1), Spring High (22/1), Silver Tycoon (28/1), Countdown (33/1)

Verdict

VAN HUNKS has very good claims and sets a tall standard. Narina Trogon could be the one to take advantage if the selection underperforms, while Spring High is another with place prospects.

  1. Van Hunks16/1
  2. Narina Trogon5/1
  3. Spring High22/1
