Forecasts

Papagei (4/1), Dubawi Time (4/1), Bobacious (4/1), Laser Focus (5/1), Livinthelife (17/2), Queensland Boy (11/1), Squeaker (12/1), War Director (16/1), Trojan Truth (20/1), Rebel Angel (25/1), The Pug (40/1), Bluenose Belle (100/1)

LASER FOCUS didn't fire over hurdles last time but he shaped well (finished with running left) on his latest Flat outing and the race should be run to suit, so he's the most appealing. Bobacious should be on the premises and Livinthelife has been running with credit for a while, so they're both dangers.
