Forecasts

Space Kid (10/3), Uncle Dick (5/1), Night Force (5/1), Heat And Dust (5/1), Spirit Of Rowdown (13/2), Arthur's Angel (11/1), Zoolander (11/1), Beechwood Emily (16/1), Star Of Screen (16/1), Cliffcake (28/1), Tataboq (40/1), Papas Champ (50/1), Dujac (80/1)

SPACE KID is a C&D winner and manged to build on that success off a 3 lb higher mark when second at Southwell last week. He looks to have leading claims back here. Zoolander has been running creditably at this venue and has each-way claims in different headgear. Heat and Dust could improve and needs to be considered.
