Forecasts

Georg Zhukov (7/2), Blackjack Hills (9/2), Miss Australie (11/2), Barretstown (13/2), Ms Messi (15/2), Power Of Prayer (8/1), Glyde Ranger (8/1), Thompson Gunner (11/1), Bella Boyne (16/1), Eighty Eight (16/1), Aurora's Beauty (16/1), Desert Of The Sea (25/1), Waystar (28/1), Pure Granite (28/1), Deluca Chop (33/1), Together Aclaim (33/1), Sonoma Sunset (40/1)

BARRETSTOWN can enhance his fine C&D record and land a second successive win in this race. Georg Zhukov ran well in a course claimer last week and is second choice ahead Blackjack Hills. Joseph O'Brien handicap newcomer Power of Prayer would also very much enter the reckoning if the betting speaks in her favour.
