Forecasts
Weleyff (15/8), Vega King (5/2), Love Rome (3/1), Astral Crown (11/2), Mr Minz (14/1)
This isn't a deep novice and VEGA KING can maintain his yard's strong start to the season with its 2-y-o newcomers. Weleyff and Love Rome both showed a bit on debut and can chase the selection home, in that order.
