Forecasts

Ask A Sainte (9/4), Holy Legend (5/1), Ghasham (5/1), Playful Fox (11/2), Tropical Talent (13/2), Dexter (17/2), Reteti (10/1), Prospect House (14/1), Inedit D'amour (25/1), Bertie B (40/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but TROPICAL TALENT looked the likely winner until hitting the last at Sedgefield last time and is weighted to make amends here. Holy Legend is enjoying a fine time of it this season and rates the chief threat in his bid for a fourth success from his last 5 outings, while chasing newcomer Playful Fox and the selection's stablemate Dexter can also have a say in this competitive handicap.

  1. TROPICAL TALENT
  2. HOLY LEGEND
  3. PLAYFUL FOX (FR)
