Forecasts

Ask Ben (13/8), Speak Of The Devil (3/1), Craiganboy (4/1), Diocese (11/2), Flemens Story (6/1), Mistermoonboy (6/1), Pieceoftheaction (10/1)

MISTERMOONBOY has shown plenty in two runs at the track and promises to be even better now stepping up to 3m and can get off the mark. Shock Newcastle winner Ask Ben represents the chief threat and Diocese is not without a chance if his stamina holds out.
