Forecasts

Solo Saxophone (2/1), Ask Paddington (7/2), Sigurd (6/1), Desert Sensation (13/2), Arthur's Sixpence (9/1), Jack Lamb (11/1), Buster Edwards (12/1), Quids In (22/1), Belize (33/1)

This looks the trickier of the two divisions with plenty of horses holding fair claims. Narrow preference is for BUSTER EDWARDS whose connections have exercised extreme patience and who makes his handicap debut after hinting he could win a race or two. Desert Sensation caught the eye last time and could be a proper danger, while a bold show would not surprise from Ask Paddington, Jack Lamb and Arthur's Sixpence.
