Forecasts

So Grateful (4/1), Chookie Dunedin (5/1), Jupiter Express (6/1), Stellar Queen (13/2), Lezardrieux (7/1), Wade's Magic (7/1), Highjacked (15/2), John Kirkup (11/1), Woodlands Charm (14/1), Amber Dew (14/1), Churchill Bay (33/1)

Lots with chances so at the likely odds it is worth siding with JUPITER EXPRESS to take advantage of a lenient mark and resume winning ways. So Grateful is feared most on the back of his good recent Hamilton second, although in-form pair Chookie Dunedin and Wade's Magic can have a say too.
