Forecasts

Village Master (6/4), Hard Frost (9/2), Kings Justice (5/1), Sans Of Gold (6/1), Royal Sam (13/2), Robinsville (17/2), Going Mobile (12/1), Astroman (12/1), Etincelle Artiste (14/1), Mackie Dee (18/1), Bells Of Stamford (22/1), Forget You Not (40/1)

VILLAGE MASTER has looked a natural since switched to fences and this looks a good opportunity for him to complete the hat-trick. Royal Sam wasn't seen to best effect at Taunton 2 weeks ago and remains capable of better in this sphere, while Astroman is worth another chance.
