Forecasts

Jade Country (7/2), Huddleton Mac (11/2), Aguaplano (6/1), Ebtihaaj (7/1), Majestic Fighter (15/2), Maysong (9/1), George Morland (10/1), He's A Gentleman (16/1), Love Dreams (16/1), Island Bandit (18/1), Bushfire (22/1), Just Amber (25/1), Sip And Smile (33/1), Aristobulus (100/1)

JADE COUNTRY only just failed to follow up his Yarmouth win at Windsor 9 days ago and remains of interest off the same mark. George Morland is an obvious threat as he goes for the hat-trick, with Huddleton Mac another to consider back down in class.
