Forecasts

Illusionist (11/4), Ey Up It's Maggie (11/2), Gemini Star (13/2), Zargun (15/2), Showalong (17/2), Snazzy Jazzy (10/1), Glory Fighter (11/1), Thunder Star (12/1), Majeski Man (14/1), Rambuso Creek (18/1), Never This Way (18/1), Soul Seeker (33/1), Iris Dancer (33/1), Oso Rapido (40/1)

SHOWALONG is well treated and was successful second time out last year, so he might be worth chancing in an open race. Recent Doncaster winner Zargun is a player and Ey Up It's Maggie is respected based on her record on testing ground.
