Forecasts

He's A Laddie (10/11), Dazzling Des (4/1), Strong Power (4/1), Audio (5/1), Champagne Supanova (6/1), Microscopic (12/1)

Having twice scored in novice company HE'S A LADDIE did as well as anticipated last time in a Listed York contest. He now makes the move into nurseries and may be up to giving away weight in this small field. Bath winner Audio was behind the selection at Wolverhampton but is now better off on these terms while both Champagne Supanova and Dazzling Des could find improvement to be competitive.
