Forecasts

That's Just Dandy (7/2), Smile Of Love (5/1), Navagio (13/2), Surrounding (15/2), Pulse Of Shanghai (15/2), Ampeson (8/1), Final Voyage (9/1), Yermanthere (12/1), Andreas Vesalius (12/1), Rocky Dreams (14/1), J J Jumbo (16/1), Dairerin (16/1), Inflection Point (20/1), Adnaan (25/1), Whatharm (28/1), Exquisite Acclaim (33/1), Steel Bull (40/1)

FINAL VOYAGE disappointed last time but he's the type to bounce back returned to AW and is now 4 lb below his last winning mark. Unexposed maiden winner Smile of Love is a likely threat, with the thriving Rocky Dreams another to consider.
