Forecasts

Sanus Per Aquam (6/4), Tirmizi (5/2), Benkei (6/1), Mandamus (7/1), Brokopondo (7/1), Nearly Famous (7/1), Three Jacks (12/1)

Verdict

It may be worth taking a chance on MANDAMUS in what looks a "trappy" race. He's well handicapped on the best of his form. If Tirmizi is ready to go after a significant absence he could be tough to beat while Benkei looks capable of winning more races off this kind of mark.
  1. Mandamus
  2. Tirmizi
  3. Benkei
