Forecasts

Bluebells Boy (15/8), Jumira Bridge (5/1), Destiny's Spirit (5/1), Arlecchino's Gift (6/1), Lady Gazelle (7/1), Cloudy Breeze (8/1), Sumac (18/1), Mick Says No (25/1), Kangaroo (25/1), Secret Tryst (50/1)

Verdict

BLUEBELLS BOY has managed to string several respectable efforts together recently and he appeals as the most solid proposition in a weak contest. Jumira Bridge hinted at a revival last time and has fallen to a tempting mark, whilst Arlecchino's Gift can also be involved if able to back up his C&D second.

  1. BLUEBELLS BOY
  2. JUMIRA BRIDGE
  3. ARLECCHINO'S GIFT
