Forecasts

Mendelssohn Bay (2/1), Local Dynasty (5/2), Elyabri (3/1), Guns And Glory (6/1), Nevershow Weakness (18/1), First Constitution (25/1), Violent Justice (28/1), Hans Andersen (28/1)

Verdict

MENDELSSOHN BAY took another step forward when winning again on the dirt 4 weeks ago and can make a successful switch to handicaps. Elyabri is feared, while Local Dynasty could also figure if building on his recent comeback here.

  1. Mendelssohn Bay2/1
  2. Elyabri3/1
  3. Local Dynasty5/2
