Forecasts

Valhalla (6/4), Darebin (3/1), Kapstadt (4/1), Robinshill (9/1), Going For Broke (10/1), Floresco (12/1)

Quite a trappy novices' handicap chase. Hopefully, it was lack of peak fitness rather than reluctance which saw Valhalla grab defeat from the jaws of victory last time. He is talented and could well defy top weight, while Robinshill is better than he showed on his chasing debut and Going For Broke can be forgiven an ordinary display last time. The bottom two, Darebin and Floresco, are also likely to have their supporters, but KAPSTADT ran into a good novice on his chasing bow, will be wiser for the experience and hails from a stable in top form.
