Forecasts

Kingmax (4/5), Two Tempting (7/4), Hello Sydney (13/2), Ancient Capital (22/1), Busselton (25/1), Honorary Member (33/1), Muhtashim (40/1), Purple Reign (40/1), Qeyaam (50/1), Whitcombe Rockstar (100/1), Nachos Cheese (125/1), Mutara (200/1), Banbrook Boy (200/1), Simply Sondheim (300/1)

TWO TEMPTING confirmed debut promise with a much-improved second over C&D 32 days ago, beaten only by a smart prospect having been left poorly placed, and looks more than capable of winning one of these. Kingmax has a similar profile to the selection but has been off since May and has left Roger Varian. Hello Sydney offered something to work on here 2 weeks ago and is best of the others.
