Forecasts

Try Me (2/1), Big City Girl (11/4), Gilda Gray (9/2), Tsitsikamma Pearl (9/2), Countess Danza (11/1), Bushveld (12/1), Marshmallow (18/1), Shiny Silva (20/1), Blindedbythelights (20/1)

Verdict

COUNTESS DANZA's overall form just gives her the edge. Tsitsikamma Pearl looks the best back-up if the selection underperforms, while Marshmallow is perhaps the most interesting other runner.

  1. Countess Danza11/1
  2. Tsitsikamma Pearl9/2
  3. Marshmallow18/1
