Forecasts

Brilliant Blue (5/2), Tangled Words (3/1), Barqi (11/2), Later Darling (6/1), Groundbreaker (10/1), It Is Now (10/1), Dungeon (10/1), My Boy Jack (25/1), Cabinet Maker (33/1), Jelly Baby (40/1), Eagle's Way (80/1), Just Percy (300/1)

BRILLIANT BLUE certainly achieved enough to suggest he can win a race like this when runner-up at Yarmouth last month and is the percentage call, although strong market confidence behind very well-bred newcomers from leading stables Barqi and/or Dungeon would put a slightly different slant on things.
