Forecasts

Blue Day (1/1), Trefor (7/2), Jimmy Speaking (4/1), Cajetan (5/1), Moswaat (13/2), Dapper Valley (9/1), Matters Most (14/1), Salvuccio (14/1), Royal Zabeel (20/1), G'day Mate (50/1)

It's hard not to resist BLUE DAY, who showed plenty in his three starts as a juvenile and duly improved when making a winning handicap debut on return at Southwell. He had plenty left in the tank that day and this 7 lb higher mark should be well within reach. The hat-trick seeking Jimmy Speaking looks nailed-on for another big effort, while Dapper Valley is third choice ahead of Cajetan and Trefor.
