Forecasts

Dulas (11/4), Rock Boy Grey (7/2), Extrodinair (5/1), Clareyblue (10/1), Lilkian (11/1), Able Kane (12/1), Split Down South (14/1), Cowboy Soldier (14/1), Recall The Show (14/1), Abel Handy (16/1), Poets Dance (25/1), Storm Over (33/1), Triple Spear (40/1)

An open contest, but DULAS, a winner on his previous AW start, offered plenty to work on following an absence when fifth at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and is taken to build on that with stall 2 another plus. Extrodinair and Rock Boy Grey head the opposition.
