Forecasts

Al Barez (11/8), Bay Breeze (11/4), Mojomaker (9/2), Sip And Smile (11/2), Glamorous Express (14/1), Harb (16/1), Another Investment (40/1)

BAY BREEZE returned an improved model when easily landing a Ripon handicap last week and is impossible to oppose turned out quickly under a 6 lb penalty. Al Barez ended 2021 on the up and is on a hat-trick so rates much the biggest threat with Bath winner Glamorous Express appealing as the pick of the remainder.
