Forecasts

Johnny Boom (11/8), Boy About Town (4/1), Lexington Knight (9/2), Wurlitzer (5/1), First Charge (7/1), Absolute Ruler (12/1), Bay Of Naples (22/1), Pavlodar (66/1), Ba Na Hills (125/1)

The in-form JOHNNY BOOM remains on a workable mark and can register his third success of 2023. First Charge and Lexington Knight should also make their presence felt.
