Forecasts

St Julie (1/1), Island Getaway (9/4), Meli Melo D'angos (3/1), St Zoe (5/1), As You Were (11/1)

Preference is for ISLAND GETAWAY, who was found wanting for know-how when fifth in a recent C&D bumper but he should've derived plenty from that initial effort. Similar comments can be made about Meli Melo d'Angos, so he's put forward as the main threat ahead of debutante St Julie, whose emerging yard has already tasted success with this family.
