Going over the race for the final time, taking into consideration the rail out six and a firm track, I surprised myself with the runner that kept jumping out at me....

ICE CHARIOT.

The horse is so much better on firm going and I'll be having a good crack at him each way. The horse to beat is....

GUILLOTINE.

While the big money has come for my original selection

ZAGREB

For my exotics I'll be throwing in the three Kiwis...

RED RULER, NOM DU JEU and BOUNDLESS.

As for Weekend Hussler I predict that they'll want him riden close to the lead and if they go slow he'll put in a good show for his fans on what should be a leaders track. Littorio and Maldivian are the best of the rest.
