Forecasts

Gwennie May Jem (1/1), El Rojo Grande (5/2), Crac De Megaudais (6/1), Blue Ribbon (9/1), Poet's Reflection (16/1), Clashmore Banter (50/1)

GWENNIE MAY JEM and El Rojo Grande recently filled the first two places in a Warwick handicap and a repeat scenario could be on the cards here, with the former taken to confirm his superiority. Crac de Megaudais will need to improve if he's to trouble the aforementioned duo on this chase debut but he's most interesting of the others all the same.
