Forecasts
Cape Byron (7/2), Raising Sand (5/1), Flaming Spear (5/1), Ripp Orf (6/1), Il Primo Sole (7/1), Raydiance (10/1), Shady Mccoy (12/1), Firmament (12/1), Escobar (14/1), Gilgamesh (14/1), Good Effort (16/1), Vale Of Kent (20/1), Aces (20/1), Growl (20/1), Above The Rest (20/1), Lake Volta (25/1), Cardsharp (33/1), George Bowen (33/1)
There would be few more deserving winners of a big handicap than CAPE BYRON and having ran excellent seconds to Ripp Orf (5lb better off with that rival) and Flaming Spear (3lb better off) he can finally have his moment with the weights now in his favour. Unexposed Il Primo Sole from the all-conquering John Gosden yard could easily be better than this mark and makes most appeal of the low drawn runners while course specialist Ripp Orf could again be best of the high drawn runners.
