Forecasts

Sirjack Thomas (15/8), Himmah (15/8), Mount Wellington (5/2), Sister Anne (14/1), Mills On Tour (16/1), Howya Harry (25/1), Taylor Velvet (50/1), Roderic The Second (50/1)

Taylor Velvet and Himmah like to be up with the pace and the latter should hold on for a place,but MOUNT WELLINGTON, looks to be the one to try and make all here in the testing conditions, finally getting off the mark in first time blinkers.
