Forecasts

Vulcan (9/4), Boss Power (7/2), Satono Japan (5/1), Wonder Elmossman (17/2), Power Of States (17/2), Anythingtoday (9/1), Bad Company (10/1), Sea The Shells (12/1)

Verdict

VULCAN confirmed his return to form when producing a career-best effort last time and he can follow up his Newcastle success. Having only had the 3 starts for Ralph Beckett so far, the 5-y-o could still have more to offer so he can see off the challenge of the Sir Michael Stoute-trained pair of Boss Power and Satono Japan, with the former having won 3 of his 4 starts on all-weather.
