Forecasts

Thunder Flow (5/2), Old Chums (3/1), Amancio (4/1), Quantum Force (13/2), Split The Profit (8/1), Rothay Park (9/1), Cassanos Lad (12/1), Amazing Winnie (25/1)

QUANTUM FORCE showed ability last season and, with blinkers fitted after a gelding operation, he's the sort to take a big step forward now switched to handicaps, so he's narrowly preferred to Thunder Flow, who boasts a progressive profile. Amancio looks a solid option but he's more exposed than the aforementioned pair.
