Top Picks from WSB:
Race 4 American Rebel
W C Marwing / G Lerena
Best form in the field and stepping up in trip, but will need to overcome a wide draw.
Race 6 Mocha Frappe
A G Laird / K A Brewer
Less exposed than most, stepping up in trip, which could bring out further improvement.
Race 7 Silent War
A P Peter / M K Katjedi
Course and distance winner in good form over longer trips. Runs well fresh, so he can go close on his return to action.
