Forecasts

Noelan Star (2/5), Horu Kanu (10/3), Viper (8/1), Whernside (12/1), Record Day (12/1), Tzarmaggedon (22/1), Leelawadee (33/1), Balmoral Boy (40/1), Eagle Thunder (66/1), Billyjoegold (80/1), Wee Dresser (150/1)

It's hard to get away from NOELAN STAR given the manner of his debut win in a 1m novice here during the winter, the runner-up that day scoring next-time-out. Horu Kanu returns with his stable in good order so he heads the opposition, with Leelawadee a newcomer of interest.
