Forecasts
Bellevarde (11/4), Secret Potion (3/1), Blue Venture (9/2), Atty's Edge (5/1), Handytalk (15/2), Fard (17/2), Edge Of The Bay (12/1), Rocking Reg (33/1), Hot Hot Hot (50/1)
This looks trappy and the suggestion is HANDYTALK, who hasn't fired on his last 2 starts but the handicapper has relented (down to a career-low mark) and dropping back to the minimum trip here looks a good move. The hat-trick seeking Secret Potion has to be high on the shortlist, while Bellevarde is holding her form well and it'll be no surprise if she's again involved in the finish.
