Forecasts

Barrington Court (11/8), Numerian (4/1), Bolivar (6/1), Snapraeceps (13/2), Zawara (7/1), Kassaba (10/1), Red Kelly (16/1), Sagrada Familia (22/1), Springbank (25/1), Starlight Dream (28/1), Camphor (40/1), Too Soon To Panic (50/1), In Favour (150/1), Satisfy (200/1)

A competitive listed event but BARRINGTON COURT has gone from strength to strength since her attentions were switched to the level so Jessica Harrington's mare is fancied to follow up her recent C&D win in this grade. Bolivar is much less exposed and shouldn't be underestimated now he goes back up in distance while Kassaba, another with few miles on the clock, and Numerian can also have a say.
