Forecasts

Nulife (11/4), Duke Of Waspington (9/2), Sleepy Head (7/1), Six Silver Lane (8/1), Easy Pass (8/1), Mr Fiftyone (8/1), Specific Gravity (10/1), Pretty Little Liar (10/1), Cashless (10/1), Lizard Point (11/1), Phebes Dream (12/1), Lady Argentum (20/1), Aurellia (25/1), Ar Eagla Na Heagla (33/1), Analytical Mindset (33/1), Dance Alone (33/1), Mistamel (40/1)

DUKE OF WASPINGTON has run well on both starts since joining this yard and he can break his maiden by taking the concluding handicap contest. The selection has the assistance of a leading jockey on this occasion and can get the better of the veteran Six Silver Lane who was just touched over in a claimer here last time out. Phebes Dream caught the eye here two weeks ago and she can finish third on this occasion.
