Forecasts

Indian Springs (10/11), Two Tribes (9/2), Yotarid (11/2), Rabaah (9/1), Righthere Rightnow (11/1), Run Boy Run (18/1), Arabie (20/1), Haasim (28/1), Vespasian (40/1), Twilight Calls (40/1), Bold Style (50/1), Rasas (80/1), Chaldero (100/1), Megarry (125/1)

Verdict

INDIAN SPRINGS looks to have just about the best credentials and can score in this competitive handicap. Rabaah is another who could have a big say in matters dropping back in grade, while Vespasian is another to consider on pick of form.
