Forecasts

Jkr Cobbler (13/8), Hour By Hour (5/1), Tremendous Times (11/2), Agnes Grey (7/1), Obee Jo (12/1), B Associates (14/1), Indian Falcon (14/1), Hills Of Gold (14/1), Muntadab (20/1), Secret Road (20/1), Kelpie Grey (28/1), Wrecked It Ralph (66/1), Ignac Lamar (80/1)

JKR COBBLER is compiling an excellent record at Ayr, finding only a well-treated rival too good over C&D last week and from the same mark, he can regain the winning thread. Tremendous Times hasn't had much exposure to 7f so he's a threat, with Muntadab another to consider dropped in grade.
