Forecasts

Blue Cup (5/2), Irish Admiral (7/2), Surrey Pride (5/1), Fishable (13/2), Makram (15/2), Satono Japan (11/1), United Front (25/1), Pivoine (28/1), Khagan (33/1), Sameem (40/1), Chichester (50/1), Uzincso (50/1)

Verdict

BLUE CUP could hardly have shaped any better on his return at Epsom last month, not stretching it to say he'd have won with a clear run, so he has to be the selection. Satono Japan is a lightly-raced 4-y-o who remains capable of better, while Makram and Irish Admiral are others to take seriously in a good-quality handicap.
