Forecasts
Sumkindofking (5/6), Gustave Mahler (7/4), Fair Exchange (17/2), Cotton Jenny (9/1)
This should rest between the two topweights given their two rivals have questions to answer. Sumkindofking represents connections who have to be feared with chasers around here and underfoot conditions are forecast to be perfect. On the downside this may prove tactical and it is hard to argue he is well-handicapped. GUSTAVE MAHLER has been unlucky to bump into some smart sorts since switching codes, but he is a reliable sort who battles under pressure and the switch to handicapping gives him his first chance to meet rivals on equal terms.
- Gustave Mahler
- Sumkindofking
- Cotton Jenny
