Forecasts

Ask Brewster (10/3), Yes Day (4/1), Planned Paradise (11/2), Regarde (13/2), Ajp Kingdom (8/1), Mahland (8/1), Illico De Cotte (11/1), Jumping Jet (18/1), Northern Poet (22/1), Fortescue (28/1), Back On The Lash (28/1), Valleres (33/1), Valirann Gold (40/1), Undersupervision (40/1), Saint Xavier (66/1)

YES DAY comes here firmly on the up and is fancied to make light of a 4 lb rise and complete a hat-trick. Ajp Kingdom rates the chief threat on the back of an easy Uttoxeter victory when last seen in November, although the likes of Planned Paradise, Regarde and Ask Brewster also enter calculations. Jumping Jet completes the shortlist in this competitive handicap.
