Forecasts

Ballinvarrig (5/4), Orbasa (5/4), Uhlan Bute (13/2), Raajih (28/1)

This probably boils down to a head-to-head between ORBASA and Ballinvarrig with the former getting the nod on account of the drop in grade. Uhlan Bute is likely to be outclassed by those two especially in light of his poor run at Kempton Park at the weekend. 1. Orbasa 2. Ballinvarrig 3. Uhlan Bute
