Forecasts

Quantum Theory (15/8), Tizona (4/1), Danilo Danilovitch (4/1), Cabinet Shuffle (6/1), Team Gold (7/1), Running Rifles (11/1), Mercantour (11/1), River Queraress (16/1), Taikonaut (33/1)

Verdict

DANILO DANILOVITCH was much improved compared with his previous run in his latest race and has obvious claims. Team Gold is foremost among the dangers, while Tizona could also figure.

  1. Danilo Danilovitch4/1
  2. Team Gold7/1
  3. Tizona4/1
