Forecasts

Voodoo Ray (11/8), De Vegas Kid (10/3), Vitesse Du Son (9/2), Arlo's Sunshine (11/2), Endless Season (9/1), Rayena (40/1), Chloellie (40/1), Miss Malou (150/1)

VOODOO RAY scored at this track on his penultimate outing and shaped as if still in top form (went off hard) when third here since, so he's fancied to resume winning ways at the likely expense of Arlo's Sunshine, the only one of the others to arrive in form. Vitesse du Son is likely to benefit from the return to this trip, so he's also considered.
