Forecasts

Gossip Column (10/3), Corelli (10/3), Bajan Gold (4/1), Berkshire Blue (9/2), Sergio Leone (5/1), Bayshore Freeway (8/1), Jazeel (8/1), Blue Laureate (12/1), Bubble And Squeak (12/1), Technological (20/1), Sarvi (50/1)

If Gossip Column can get an uncontested lead here, there's a suspicion he will be hard to pass but preference is for JAZEEL after some seemingly lenient handicapping from the assessor. Up just 4lb for his latest success, there could be even more to come over this new trip. Bajan Gold was only narrowly denied here last time and can go well again and Sergio Leone is another live contender after his win last time.
