Forecasts

Musical Slave (6/4), Dancing Doug (7/2), Et Moi Alors (5/1), Minella Fiveo (11/2), Genius (8/1), Earl Of Bunnacurry (16/1), Siannes Star (25/1), Tempuran (40/1)

Et Moi Alors is on a dangerous mark if able to recapture his juvenile form and a market move for him would be interesting. Earl Of Bunnacurry is another to check in pre-race trading given his shrewd trainer, whilst Minella Fiveo should do better at this trip. Musical Slave is likely to show more now handicapping, but DANCING DOUG comes into this with less to prove than most having finished third at Carlisle to a handicap blot and with the second scoring next time.
