Forecasts

A Montmartre (11/4), Alizee De Janeiro (7/2), Gold Chain (4/1), Bahrikate (5/1), Princess Mononoke (6/1), Sunset Marquis (14/1), Rock Solid (25/1)

Not a very strong event and it probably won’t take much winning with the two last time out winners Bakrikate and A MONTMARTRE having the same question to answer. Can they follow-up their wins from last time out both of which came in weak races. A Montmartre is probably capable of more improvement though and gets the vote over horses like Alizee De Janiero, Princess Mononoke and Gold Chain who has more ways than running than most horses.
