Forecasts

Muzaffar (10/11), Dubai Jeanius (9/2), Legendary Day (5/1), Fairmac (11/2), Brasca (7/1), Victory March (18/1), Billy Bathgate (25/1), Smart Lass (80/1)

Low-mileage 4-y-o MUZAFFAR is firmly on the up now and can continue to make up for lost time back in a handicap. The thriving Dubai Jeanius is the obvious threat as he bids for a 6-timer under a penalty, while the versatile Legendary Day should be on the premises again.
