Forecasts

Dapper Man (2/1), Buniann (7/2), Debawtry (13/2), Nibras Again (15/2), Van Gerwen (12/1), Teruntum Star (14/1), Star Prize (14/1), Ventura Flame (18/1), Ey Up Its Mick (33/1), Birkenhead (33/1), Wade's Magic (33/1)

BUNIANN has won four times on the tapeta at Newcastle but he's proven on turf too. He arrives in good form and has strong claims of gaining a first turf win here. Dapper Man is another sprinter in form and he has to rate as the main danger. Birkenhead and Van Gerwen are C&D winners with each-way chances.
