Forecasts

Baloo's Blues (3/1), Mr Ubiquitous (7/2), Jersey Maverick (5/1), Amor Cordis (11/2), Kaleidoscope Eyes (6/1), Enchanted Way (8/1), Mister Mcgregor (11/1), Blue Empress (11/1), Play Me (16/1), Silca Bay (25/1), Saidha (40/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for JERSEY MAVERICK who can race off a 1 lb lower mark than when a very good recent Kempton third. Mr Ubiquitous heads the list of dangers on the back of a solid Brighton second ahead of Kaleidoscope Eyes and Blue Empress.
