Forecasts

Tawalla (5/2), Haasim (9/2), El Nasseeb (5/1), Faattik (13/2), Zawaaya (7/1), Topper Bill (10/1), Billy Webster (12/1), Rasas (12/1), Bombay Bazaar (16/1), Mozahim (20/1), Desperate Hero (40/1)

Verdict

TAWALLA is just 2 Ib higher in the weights than when winning last month and should find the return to handicapping in his favour. The lightly-raced El Nasseeb is interesting down in grade, while Faattik should also be thereabouts.

  1. Tawalla5/2
  2. El Nasseeb5/1
  3. Faattik13/2
