Forecasts

The Real Screamer (4/9), Gallo Dell Cielo (7/2), Omakase (10/1), Rumbled Again (12/1), Roderick (20/1), Wajaaha (20/1), Promo Queen (25/1), Is She Now (33/1), Saga Des Aigles (33/1), Knock Flyer (33/1), Wayside Lady (40/1), Slowdownbarney (40/1), Deuteronomy (50/1)

OMAKASE shaped well on her first try over this trip here a month ago and with a career-low mark to exploit, she could be the answer. The Real Screamer was better than ever when successful here last time and is feared most, though Gallo Dell Cielo also arrives on the back of a much-improved showing.
