Forecasts

Masked Man (1/14), Laurier Des Obeaux (5/1), Mymilkman (10/1), Hello Fortune (11/1), Jaja Jimmy (33/1), Could Be You (40/1), Charleyman (150/1)

Verdict

MASKED MAN cemented an excellent start to his career when second in Grade 2 company 3 weeks ago and with this trip sure to suit, he's confidently expected to defy a penalty. Laurier des Obeaux is the obvious threat.
