Forecasts

Babich (7/4), Newtown Duke (5/2), Mazyad (5/2), Firebrand (10/3), Coul Dreamer (7/2), Tassarolo (33/1), Sea Of Moyle (200/1)

Another chance is given to NEWTOWN DUKE with a tongue tie added. Babich could provide the main threat if bouncing back to the level of his debut second. Mazyad is also respected but this shorter trip isn't sure to see him in his best light.
