Forecasts

Mattice (10/3), Project Dante (7/2), Impressor (7/1), Canon's House (15/2), Object (10/1), Parisiac (11/1), Taygar (12/1), Sound Reason (12/1), Glory Fighter (14/1), Dusk Dame (16/1), Travel Candy (40/1), Doddie's Impact (66/1)

Last-time-out C&D winner PROJECT DANTE has to prove himself on the ground but, given that he still has plenty of handicapping scope, he's worth siding with in a race that lacks depth. Object and Dusk Dame both arrive in form but don't appear to be as well drawn as the selection.
