Forecasts

Hit Mac (5/2), Lynns Boy (9/2), Toptime (6/1), Han Solo Berger (8/1), The Tron (8/1), Nellie French (9/1), Saaheq (10/1), Grandfather Tom (14/1), Birkenhead (14/1), Thrilla In Manila (33/1)

A few with chances so it could be worth siding with course-winner TOPTIME who has gone well fresh and returns from a lay-off on a handy-looking mark. In-form Hit Mac and C&D winner The Tron appeal as the duo to give Roy Bowring's 5-y-o most to do and can chase him home in that order.
