Forecasts

Bjorn Ironside (15/8), Dantonfromsandton (7/2), Cats Pajamas (11/2), Chocolate Soldier (13/2), Buffalo Storm Cody (7/1), Bourbon Warrior (10/1), Impact Investor (22/1), Daring Dash (28/1), Lead The Charge (40/1), Silvonian (40/1)

Verdict

BJORN IRONSIDE failed to justify market expectations last time out, but edges it as the selection once again. Daring Dash could emerge as the chief threat, while Dantonfromsandton isn't out of it either.

  1. Bjorn Ironside15/8
  2. Daring Dash28/1
  3. Dantonfromsandton7/2
