Forecasts

Bigirononhiship (9/4), Corrin Wood (5/2), Smooth Stepper (13/2), Revocation (7/1), Un Noble (10/1), Batavir (11/1), Trickaway (14/1)

A very competitive looking race in which few can be readily discounted. Un Noble sports an unbeaten record here, but may need this race, and Smooth Stepper looks undeniably dangerous from a mark of 125. Revocation has been in fine form this winter, but the handicapper has not missed, and a sporting chance is taken with the inexperienced BIGIRONONHISHIP. His attitude on his fencing debut at this track last time behind Calett Mad was a commendable one, and connections wouldn't be pitching him in here against these rivals if they didn't think he was up-to the task. 1. Bigirononhiship 2. Smooth Stepper 3. Revocation
