Forecasts

Trust (11/4), Jan Van Goyen (3/1), Splittheeights (7/2), Grand Empire (5/1), Errol Flynn (5/1), One Eye On Vegas (8/1), Yippee Kiyay (16/1), All Systems Go (33/1), Radio Star (66/1)

Verdict

YIPPEE KIYAY can shoot down his rivals in this Grade 1. Splittheeights is dangerous, while Trust is another who could figure.
