Forecasts

Rhythm And Tyne (2/1), Doctor Grace (7/2), Moondharrig (9/2), Nawraq (6/1), War Thunder (7/1), Hinemoa (14/1), Action Motion (14/1), Keilah (14/1), Blackcastle Storm (16/1), Pollanassa (18/1), Miss Heartbreak (20/1), The Dazzer (25/1), Where R U Now Bob (25/1), Designer Cailin (28/1), Albion Princess (33/1), Quiet Desire (66/1), Arctic Blaze (100/1)

RHYTHM AND TYNE is lightly raced for his current yard and justified support in comfortable fashion over C&D recently, so he makes most appeal. Doctor Grace reacted well to blinkers last time and is a major threat, while Moondharrig is also on the radar.
