Forecasts

True Belief (11/4), Phoenix Star (3/1), Griggy (7/2), Classic Star (5/1), The Establishment (8/1), Johnny Reb (10/1), Para Mio (10/1), Onebaba (16/1), Derry Boy (16/1), Misu Pete (25/1), Lambristo (66/1)

It is difficult to rule out a few of these including the obvious ones like Griggy who won in pretty decisive fashion most recently, but is yet to score off a mark as high as this. Misu Pete and Para Mio hinted at a return to form last time out, but so did THE ESTABLISHMENT. His mark has dropped 8lb below his last winning one and he is fancied to build upon his best effort for some time which was a close-up third on the AW last month. If enduring a trouble-free passage (constantly denied a clear run last time out), Classic Star should be greatly feared. True Belief is a solid place contender once again too given his solid run of consistency in defeat.
