Forecasts

Bol D'Air (11/4), Royal Etiquette (3/1), Kastani Beach (4/1), Istimraar (7/1), Great Link (7/1), Gray Wolf River (12/1), It's All An Act (20/1), Shanghai Sunrise (25/1)

A very moderate contest that can go the way of ROYAL ETIQUETTE who holds a significant edge in terms of recent form and will be hard to beat if he can continue in the same vein today. Kastani Beach goes well at this course and can at least make a fist of a challenge, while Great Link has bits and pieces of form that suggest he can push his stablemate to the line. It's All An Act may the best option for a small stakes investment in a shock result. 1. Royal Etiquette 2. Kastani Beach 3. It's All An Act
