Forecasts

Prince Zaltar (10/3), Gringo D'ainay (7/2), Hascoeur Clermont (15/2), Dylan Lombardy (15/2), Allbetsoff (17/2), Rare Conor (10/1), Navigator Jack (11/1), Shean Glory (11/1), Florey Spud (14/1), Bells Life (14/1), Woodbrook Boy (16/1), Cracklinrose (16/1), My Friend The Wind (22/1), The Holmeister (22/1), Lighthouse Lady (25/1), Bear Claws (25/1), Griffith Park (33/1), Shannon Gray (33/1), Hisdaywillcome (40/1), Choice Of Mine (50/1), Gold Creek (66/1)

PRINCE ZALTAR has upped his game since tackling handicaps this spring and with his limit not yet reached, he could be the answer with Rachael Blackmore back in the saddle. Dylan Lombardy is pretty consistent at his level, while Gringo D'ainay is unexposed, particularly over this sort of trip.
