Forecasts

Shyjack (11/8), Arlo's Sunshine (11/2), Professor Galant (9/1), Ruby Lily (11/1), Tell'em Nowt (12/1), Rocket Rod (12/1), Zero Hour (12/1), Big Muddy (16/1), Shackabooah (16/1), Rinty Maginty (18/1), Dubai Elegance (20/1), Eastern Star (22/1), Lincoln Red (22/1), Harry Haafhd (22/1)

SHYJACK is temperamental but he's able to race from a mark 1 lb lower than when touched off here last week so holds obvious claims. Professor Galant responded well to this headgear when runner-up at Wolverhampton and is next best ahead of Eastern Star.
