Forecasts

Kalimantan (5/6), Star Trouper (4/1), Stetsonsnstilettos (13/2), Ocean Bentley (7/1), Honest Intent (17/2), Chicksgrove Sprite (9/1), Lough Derg Voices (25/1), Luca Brazi (100/1)

A chance is taken on HONEST INTENT returning to form dropping into selling company today. The selection placed off a mark of 105 earlier this year and this doesn't look the strongest of selling contests. Kalimantan ran well off a mark of 113 when last in action over hurdles in May 2015 and while it's unlikely he's capable of running to such a figure these days he can claim second ahead of long-standing maiden Ocean Bentley who ran well in a selling handicap last time and steps up in trip today.
