Forecasts

Secret Road (9/4), Heartrate (4/1), Blackjack (5/1), Mumayaz (6/1), Daytona Lady (13/2), Yesterday's Hero (13/2), Kitaab (11/1), Al Muqdad (11/1), Zargun (14/1)

AL MUQDAD has caught the eye on his last 2 starts so improvement can be expected now handicapping off what is potentially an attractive mark. Hat-trick seeking Daytona Lady is a likely threat, with Heartrate another to consider dropping to a 0-70.
