Forecasts

Spader (7/2), Salto Chisco (5/1), Blackfire (6/1), Zante (7/1), Midnight Jitterbug (8/1), Caprice D'anglais (8/1), Black Buble (9/1), Peppay Le Pugh (12/1), Kohuma (33/1), Ermyn's Emerald (40/1), Skilled (66/1)

This might turn out to be a little more competitive that the current market suggests Spader likely to maintain his position at the head of it after his “unlucky” run at Stratford. Dropping back to the minimum trip should help Salto Chisco with the likelihood of a strong pace set by Caprice D’anglais and Blackfire. Midnight Jitterbug looks likely to better in time in handicaps but a chance is taken here with BLACK BUBLE who ran well last time out at Stratford and the form has been boosted since by the two that finished in front of him.
