Forecasts

Desert Encounter (2/1), Barsanti (2/1), Second Step (7/2), Galapiat (9/2), Restorer (18/1)

Verdict

DESERT ENCOUNTER won in very taking fashion last time out and there could be more to come this year. Galapiat looks set to make another bold bid from the front and may get the run of the race while Second Step did better last time out and will no doubt enjoy the drop in class.

  2. Galapiat
  3. Second Step
