Forecasts

Electric Gold (2/1), Shoemaker (9/2), Star Coin (8/1), Meridius (17/2), Lady Of Power (17/2), Emirate Gina (9/1), Litigation (10/1), Juliet Tango (10/1), Willow's Wish (12/1), Crimson King (20/1), Whafeef (20/1)

Verdict

JULIET TANGO was a shade disappointing when favourite last time out, but gets the nod again. Emirate Gina is probably the sternest opposition, while Star Coin edges it for third.
