Forecasts

Samyr (4/5), Stateofenlightment (9/4), Pavilion End (9/2), It's A Blue Moon (5/1), Harry's Dream (10/1), Real Empire (50/1), Beautiful Beauty (100/1)

IT'S A BLUE MOON hails from a yard with a fine record in bumpers and he gets the nod in the finale. Samyr and Pavilion End are also of interest in a race where the market may prove the best guide.
