Forecasts

First Greyed (15/8), King Of York (2/1), Mickey Mongoose (9/2), Heretic (9/1), Headshot (12/1), Beautiful Dawn (14/1), Van Zant (25/1), It's Tim (66/1)

FIRST GREYED caused a shock when defying huge odds with plenty in hand at Wolverhampton last week and can follow up if turning up in similar form under a penalty. Hat-trick seeker King of York also remains well treated on past exploits and rates the obvious threat.
