Forecasts

Asadjumeirah (5/2), Flash The Dash (5/1), The Gay Blade (11/2), Spartan Fighter (11/2), Athollblair Boy (6/1), Rogue Thunder (13/2), May Remain (15/2), Blackcurrent (16/1), Tommytwohoots (20/1), Woodrafff (25/1), Poet (28/1), Flavius Titus (28/1)

This looks wide open and the suggestion is MAY REMAIN, who wasn't at his best last time but he has gone close on two of his last four starts and remains on a basement mark. Asadjumeirah put in a good shift when second at Southwell and he is next on the list ahead of Rogue Thunder.
