Forecasts

Axel Jacklin (7/4), The First Hurrah (7/2), Q Twenty Boy (9/2), Peachey Carnehan (6/1), Barrington (15/2), Elektronic (18/1), Dodgy Bob (22/1), Pacopash (50/1), Isabella Ruby (80/1)

AXEL JACKLIN arrives in fine form and can follow up last month's C&D victory. Barrington and Q Twenty Boy should also go well.
