Forecasts

Packard (8/13), Point Of Attack (9/2), Two Tribes (5/1), Ajwadi (13/2), Starlust (10/1), Arran Bay (25/1), Eagle Landed (33/1), Give It Up (40/1), Rey De La Batalla (100/1), Dark Before Dawn (100/1), Nelson Rose (125/1)

POINT OF ATTACK certainly looks up to the job on paper being a six-figure yearling and a half-sister to 3 winners, so a winning debut would come as no surprise. Packard and Two Tribes are also of firm interest on the back of runner-up efforts.
