Forecasts

Mishrah (11/8), The Merciful (11/8), Santiago's Pride (7/2), Mo Ment (4/1), Alakanani (12/1), Aftershock (20/1), Beverly Baby (40/1), Fa So La Ti Do (40/1)

SANTIAGO'S PRIDE isn't easy to oppose on the form he has shown and is a major player. Mo Ment is likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while The Merciful can scrap it out for third.
