Forecasts

Dad Sez (8/13), Minella Emperor (9/4), Hi Ho Idaho (5/1), Siege Of Carthage (6/1)

DAD SEZ will be suited by this return to 3m and may well get the run of things from the front so he could be worth chancing given the question marks that surround his main rival, Minella Emperor possessing the form to win a race like this but rather having lost his way when last seen in the spring.
