Forecasts

Gustav Graves (7/4), Bomb Squad (9/2), Amazing Amaya (5/1), Jack Ryan (11/2), Astrophysics (7/1), Tom Tulliver (9/1), Griggy (11/1), Glorious Charmer (20/1), Gatwick Kitten (20/1), Rain Cap (28/1), Symbol of Hope (33/1), Relative Choice (33/1), Krazy Paving (80/1)

ASTROPHYSICS has run well the last twice and arguably shaped best when second despite a wide trip over 7f here a month ago, so he's taken to go one better at the likely expense of Jack Ryan, who scored at Southwell recently and was a good second there on Sunday. Amazing Amaya could arrive late if she gets the breaks from stall 11.
