Forecasts

Cuban Grey (7/4), Batchelor Boy (4/1), Atty's Edge (4/1), Street Parade (8/1), Boom The Groom (9/1), Thank The Lord (9/1), Puffable (12/1), Lumacho (16/1)

BOOM THE GROOM has returned to form of late, running well when third at Chelmsford in his bid for a hat-trick last time, so he is taken to quickly resume winning ways. He can see off the challenge of Cuban Grey, who made a successful stable debut at this C&D on his latest outing, with Atty's Edge completing the shortlist.
