BETTING FORECAST:

RACE SUMMARY:

UGGY UGGY UGGY is gradually getting the hang of things and might make a marked step forward now switched to handicaps, so he takes marginal preference over Forever A Dove, whose opening mark is potentially favourable based on her bumper performances. Coal Fire is also considered.
