Forecasts

Nibraas (3/1), Speight'spercomete (3/1), Zhou Storm (11/2), Rare Ninja (6/1), Grand Dubai (9/1), Chosen Mark (14/1), Balavad (14/1), Shamran (16/1), Dignity Joy (18/1), Nimer (25/1), Talo (28/1), Al Murqab (28/1)

Newcomer SPEIGHT'SPERCOMETE makes appeal in a race where those with experience don't set an insurmountable standard. There was little between Rare Ninja and Zhou Storm here last time and they can fill the places.
