Forecasts

Hiromichi (11/4), Tilsitt (10/3), Venetian (7/2), Tulekya (5/1), Bulls Aye (7/1), Tabuk (12/1), Cuban Rock (20/1), Burning The Bails (40/1)

VENETIAN hasn't been at his best lately but he's back on his last winning mark so could be worth chancing down in class. Tilsitt is another who's back down in grade so rates the main threat ahead of habitual slow-starter Bulls Aye.
