Forecasts

Apache Star (3/1), Wee Fat Mac (4/1), Boom The Groom (4/1), Spanish Angel (5/1), Glorious Charmer (6/1), Mintana (11/1), Ellie Piper (12/1), You're Cool (18/1), Mops Gem (25/1), Iconicdaay (40/1), Magna Bella (250/1)

Veteran BOOM THE GROOM ran a cracker when runner-up over C&D earlier in the week and is fancied to go one better if turning up in similar form. Apache Star went through the race as if on a workable mark at Southwell 9 days ago and must enter the reckoning, along with Mintana and Glorious Charmer.
