Forecasts

Blue Point (1/1), Danzeno (9/2), Second Thought (7/1), Projection (9/1), Magical Memory (9/1), Tommy Taylor (14/1), Intisaab (16/1), Simmie (33/1), Rosie Briar (50/1), Visionary (50/1)

Verdict

Blue Point sets a clear standard and could easily prove a cut above but all his best form is on quicker ground so it may just pay to take him on. Proven course performer Danzeno would be one alternative but preference is for the lightly-raced SECOND THOUGHT who may still have improvement up his sleeve after looking a little ring rusty on his return from a short break at Newbury recently. Magical Memory is a hit-or-miss performer who would hold strong claims if in the mood.
  1. Second Thought
