Forecasts

Balko D'ange (6/4), Cottesloe Sunshine (10/3), Marcus Furius (7/2), Artic Lane (11/2), Person Of Interest (11/1), Faceman (14/1), Midnight Eagle (25/1), Silas Marner (28/1), Another Belter (50/1), Kanpai (50/1), Scriabin (50/1), Newport (100/1), Our Girl Ellie (200/1), Sylvia's Secret (200/1), Somerset Hill (200/1), Niosfearabolt (200/1), Princess Fiadh (200/1)

COTTESLOE SUNSHINE holds much the best form on show so is fancied to get off the mark and continue the good recent run of Joseph O'Brien. Balko d'Ange and Marcus Furius appeals as the pick of the remainder and can chase home the selection in that order.
