Forecasts

Sax Appeal (11/8), Ramensky (11/8), Oyamal (7/4), Riffa Fort (13/2), Notimeforanother (10/1), Biscoff Joe (14/1), Tartarus (33/1), Coriano Ridge (50/1), Oro Cosmico (150/1)

RAMENSKY is no world beater but he sets the standard on his 2-y-o form, and with this trip promising to suit, he can land what looks a run-of-the-mill novice. Sax Appeal and Oyamal failed to meet expectations on debut but there's cause to expect much better this time.
