Forecasts

Lopito (7/2), Fanfair (4/1), Go Fox (9/2), Dagian (11/2), War Of Succession (6/1), Peace And Plenty (13/2), Cottingham (10/1), Yamuna River (12/1), Lzaaz (14/1), Rainbow Jazz (14/1), Rita's Man (18/1), Amaretto (33/1), Berry De Carjac (33/1), Royal Melody (50/1)

RAINBOW JAZZ has been running well in defeat in recent starts and he can gain a deserved victory in this competitive handicap. Adam West's charge has the trip and ground to suit and he can get the better of War Of Succession who was a winner over C&D last time out while third can go the way of Peace And Plenty who won off a higher mark on the AW last time.
