Forecasts

Miraculous (7/1), Mauritius Kestrel (7/1), Whirlwind (8/1), Follow Your Heart (8/1), Spirit (10/1), Clair De Lune (10/1), Azzurri (12/1), Influence (12/1), Worldly (14/1), Primal Instinct (14/1), Rhydian (14/1), Steadfast (16/1), Una The Unicorn (16/1), Kelp Forest (20/1), Paratrooper (25/1), Midnight Lady (33/1), Elsinore (50/1), Street Outlaw (66/1), Run For Cover (99/1)

Verdict

WHIRLWIND couldn't justify market support on her most recent run, but looks the one to be with once again. Rhydian can get the better of the remainder for second, while Midnight Lady shouldn't be ruled out.
