Forecasts

Queensland Boy (9/4), Mistress Light (11/4), Shaheen Saqaar (5/1), Pablo Prince (11/2), Capstan (9/1), Zivaniya (9/1), Destinado (20/1), Franco Grasso (20/1), Hurtle (22/1), Handel (40/1)

QUEENSLAND BOY was unlucky not to finish closer when fourth at Wolverhampton 19 days ago and remains low mileage after just 8 starts, so he's an appealing candidate. Mistress Light and Shaheen Saqaar are considered the main threats.
