Forecasts

Packard (7/2), Bated Breeze (4/1), Barnwell Boy (5/1), Ambushed (6/1), Vaha (8/1), Double Jump (17/2), Moyet (10/1), Pinpoint (16/1), Royal Blaze (18/1), Trevor (33/1), Havana Mojito (80/1)

BATED BREEZE ran to just a modest level when mid-field here on debut 3 weeks ago but he showed plenty to work on and can put that experience to good use up against newcomers. Double Jump's sales price doubled from foal to yearling so is one to note, while Packard looks a likely type for Richard Hannon.
