Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: P J Smullen| T: D K Weld| OR: 83

Forecasts

Pincheck (10/3), Espoir D'Soleil (7/2), Canary Row (9/2), Atlas (6/1), Try Again (8/1), Jon Ess (9/1), Master Speaker (14/1), Tuff Love (16/1), Dinkum Diamond (20/1), Turbine (20/1), Fountain (25/1)

A race that could see Turbine take on Jon Ess for the early lead here in the early stages with Try Again in behind. Espoir D'Soleil and the Jessie Harrington-trained Pincheck will have their supporters and can hit the frame while CANARY ROW can come off the pace here to take the race with his accomplished claimer on board.
