Forecasts

Blue Cup (9/2), HMS President (5/1), Strait Of Hormuz (5/1), Victory Chime (11/2), Dream With Me (15/2), Kaleidoscopic (15/2), Data Protection (8/1), Sky Defender (11/1), You're Hired (16/1), Lawn Ranger (20/1), Water's Edge (25/1)

A case can be made for most of these but the most persuasive one is for BLUE CUP who figures on a very good mark and is worth forgiving his over-exuberant York seventh now the hood goes on. Dream With Me arrives firmly on the up and is feared most in his hat-trick bid, although both Strait of Hormuz and Victory Chime are two more who bring solid credentials to the table in a cracking handicap.
