Forecasts

Astapor (7/2), Emeralds Pride (9/2), Somewhere Secret (7/1), Sharrabang (15/2), Zoom Star (15/2), Sixcor (8/1), Imperial Khan (8/1), John Kirkup (17/2), Wade's Magic (12/1), Lady Celia (18/1), Borough (22/1), Lancashire Life (22/1)

ZOOM STAR arrives at the top of her game and is fancied to go one better than her good second at Catterick 54 days ago. Sixcor is well treated and filled the same spot at Musselburgh 15 days ago, so he's considered a threat along with Astapor.
