Forecasts

Echo Check (6/4), Shinto Shrine (4/1), Clairwood Rose (4/1), Palace Attack (11/2), On A Jet Plane (11/1), Bay Empire (16/1), Willowild (18/1), Eight Hats (20/1), Peace Treaty (22/1), Ryans Boulevard (28/1), Page Boy (33/1), Artic Silver (66/1), Blaze A Way (80/1)

ON A JET PLANE looks to have a solid chance on the back of a good placed effort at Turffontein 26 days ago and earns the vote. Clairwood Rose seems the principal danger, while Shinto Shrine is another that merits respect.
