Forecasts

Rain Or Shine (7/4), Here Is The Tiger (5/2), After Hours (5/1), Dungeons (8/1), Copper John (8/1), Care Taker (9/1), In Cahoots (12/1), Carnelo (28/1), Tanganga (40/1)

Verdict

CARE TAKER is probably the safest recommendation but it's an open race. Copper John could be the hardest opposition, while After Hours may grab a bit more place money.

  1. Care Taker9/1
  2. Copper John8/1
  3. After Hours5/1
