Forecasts

Phaka Imali (3/1), Rugger Bugger (10/3), Super Fast (4/1), El Draque (5/1), Question Of Faith (8/1), Cotton Ron (14/1), Quick Star (14/1), Paris Rain (14/1), Harley Street (16/1), Captain Corrupt (16/1), Knight Warrior (25/1), Fate Of Fortune (25/1), Agressivo (25/1), Zabadak (33/1)

EL DRAQUE will take the beating now handicapping judged on the form of his maiden win. Knight Warrior is also fancied to take a hand, while Phaka Imali may grab a bit of place money.
