Forecasts

Bluffmeifyoucan (10/3), Island Run (7/2), Ballymagroarty Boy (4/1), Oscars Moonshine (11/2), Sermando (13/2), Hatos (17/2), Jet Smart (10/1), Pontresina (20/1)

None of these appeal as being particularly solid, but OSCARS MOONSHINE has slipped below the mark from which he completed a hat-trick in 2020 and a chance is taken that he'll be able to build upon the slight promise of his 2 starts in the autumn. Bluffmeifyoucan is yet to string good runs together but would take high rank if backing up his Fontwell second, whilst Island Run is another player if jumping better.
