Forecasts

Thunderclap (10/11), Broxi (17/2), Ventura Vision (9/1), Aussie Rascal (9/1), Villeurbanne (14/1), George Scott (14/1), Hot Day (14/1), Millions (14/1), Across The Nile (16/1), Capla Knight (33/1)

THUNDERCLAP justified support when off the mark with a bit to spare over C&D 3 weeks ago and a 6 lb rise doesn't look insurmountable. Across The Nile fared a lot better than the bare result on handicap bow at Wolverhampton and remains with potential, while the consistent Ventura Vision should be on the premises again.
