Forecasts

Top Bandit (2/1), Bohemian Birch (9/4), Angels Dawn (10/3), Salvador Ziggy (17/2), Hophornbeam (11/1), Orcadian Symphony (12/1), Mac Suibhne (18/1), Presenting Bonnie (20/1), Another Blue (28/1), Kilandra (50/1), Wa Wa (50/1), Patch Junior (66/1), Captain Lil (125/1)

It's worth taking a chance on the well-bred, relatively expensive TOP BANDIT, who represents a top trainer/jockey combination on debut. Bohemian Birch can be expected to leave her debut effort behind, so she's also respected along with Salvador Ziggy.
