Forecasts
Bafana Blue (5/2), Arizona Bound (4/1), King Golan (6/1), Lady London (6/1), St Quintin (13/2), Bocasien Desbois (7/1), What A Game (9/1), Graystown (12/1), Left Back (16/1), Top Cat Dj (50/1)
A tough race to call, given the inconsistency of last-time winner Bafana Blue and his reopposing rival Arizona Bound. If both run the similar levels of form to their latest start then they should be thereabouts again. Then there is KING GOLAN, who routed his field here last time by a wide margin. That performance also came from left field, but he had so much to spare that he is trusted to come up with something similar from 7lb higher and may therefore be well in. Lady London and chase newcomer Graystown are also both of interest.
- King Golan
- Bafana Blue
- Lady London
