Forecasts

Miss Blennerhasset (1/1), Winklevi (7/2), Eagle Court (4/1), Oriental Art (4/1), Lindwall (12/1), Gold Souk (12/1), Sinndarella (28/1), Zillion (40/1), Samara Star (80/1)

MISS BLENNERHASSET is much improved since switched to handicaps, beaten only by another progressive 3-y-o at Chelmsford 2 weeks ago, and she's taken to go one better. Oriental Art should bounce back returned to a suitable distance, while Winklevi also had excuses at Ffos Las.
