As of 10.15am Saturday, now a slow 6 and raining.

A very tricky race.
My top 3 are:
Hot Danish, Melito and Mic Mac.

Danger - Shellscrape (3 from 3 in the slow, won at the track and at the distance)

To be honest I think around 7 horses have a chance. If whobegotyou is fit enough and Rodd doesn't slaughter it in the running then it's always in the reckoning.

I know Phelan Ready likes the conditions but hasn't won over more than 1200m which is a concern for me. A few people think he'll run it out judged by his support this week.

Breakneck speed, Ortensia gobbles them up. It's a minefield!

Best of luck to all!!
