Forecasts

Tai Sing Yeh (6/4), Inflection Point (7/2), Tawaazon (7/1), Maritime Rules (8/1), Hypernova (9/1), Jawwaal (10/1), Bronze River (14/1), Tommy Taylor (20/1), Prince Of Abington (40/1), Sadiqaa (80/1)

The vote goes to MARITIME RULES, who wasn't beaten at all far in a 5f handicap here last week and is is taken to make a winning start for his new yard now eased in grade. Tai Sing Yeh has found just one too good the last twice and should be on the premises once again, whuke Jawwaal was a good third here on debut for Joseph O'Brien in January and, though below par next time, he could easily bounce back with a bold show.
