Forecasts
Alice Springs (6/4), Blue De Vega (2/1), Diamond Fields (9/2), Smash Williams (13/2), Gordon Lord Byron (16/1)
DIAMOND FIELDS can upset some better fancied rivals by taking this competitive Group 3 event. The selection ran well in a couple of Graded events late last year in New York and can get the better of likely favourite Alice Springs who may find underfoot conditions against her on seasonal debut. The veteran Gordon Lord Byron is likely to run well once more while both Blue De Vega and Smash Williams are both open to improvement here.
