Forecasts

Bond Spirit (10/11), Moon Over The Sea (10/3), Bass Strait (9/2), Bella Colorossa (11/1), Savoy Brown (14/1), Donald Llewellyn (20/1), Book Of Verse (20/1), Vaxholm (25/1), Our Noble Lord (28/1), Party Planner (50/1), Birdie Putt (100/1)

MOON OVER THE SEA seemed to relish the step up to 1½m when making a winning start for the Tony Carroll stable a fortnight ago and might be capable of following up. Bass Strait won nicely over 2m here recently and will be a danger if she can reproduce that form over this shorter trip. Bond Spirit is another last-time-out winner who ought to play a prominent role.
