Forecasts

The Waiting Game (11/10), Mumcat (11/4), Congress (10/1), Noble Captain (11/1), Stella Blue (14/1), Final Frontier (16/1), Eldeyaar (18/1), Autumn Flight (20/1), Stepmother (25/1), Arlecchino's Gift (25/1), Byefornow (33/1), Phoenix Star (33/1), Enchanted Night (50/1), Georgia Madeleine (100/1)

THE WAITING GAME has her first go on tapeta but still looks the way to go under a 5 lb penalty for her stylish Chelmsford City success only four days ago which sees her still on a winning mark. Recent C&D scorer Congress appeals as the chief threat to Jack Jones's filly ahead of Arlecchino's Gift and Autumn Flight.
