Forecasts

Kaizer (5/2), Mount Mews (11/2), Whirling Dervish (6/1), Prince Kayf (6/1), Keeper Hill (13/2), Nikgarde (13/2), Chapel Stile (17/2), Taxmeifyoucan (16/1)

The fact PRINCE KAYF has been absent for 13 months is a slight concern, yet his form in novice company last season has been well and truly boosted and he's worth siding with to confirm his opening mark a feasible one now stepping up in trip. Kaizer ran well behind Navajo Pass last time and is feared, along with Nikgarde.
