Forecasts

Does It In Style (11/4), Peppay Le Pugh (4/1), Fit For Fifty (11/2), Scrutinise (8/1), Xhale (11/1), Lord County (12/1), Strait Of Magellan (12/1), Wisecracker (16/1), Dr Dunraven (20/1), Timetobenefit (22/1), Life Knowledge (50/1), Hes Our Robin (66/1)

Verdict

Strait Of Magellan becomes more interesting here now dropped 5lb and in grade and support for him would be interesting. The same can be said of handicap debutante Timetobenefit. Does It In Style has little weight to carry and potential to pick up some lower grade races, so he is respected, while Fit For Fifty, Xhale under his 10lb claimer, Scrutinise and Wisecracker are all considered. However, PEPPAY LE PUGH has looked more like breaking his duck recently and is given the tentative vote to do so this time.
  1. Peppay Le Pugh
  2. Xhale
  3. Does It In Style
