Forecasts

Iron Sheriff (9/2), Aquamas (6/1), Favourite Niece (6/1), Sixcor (6/1), Listen Again (13/2), Cool Dandy (17/2), Redzone (10/1), Spartakos (11/1), Garnock Valley (12/1), Desert Mist (16/1), Mac Mccarthy (20/1), So Grateful (22/1)

IRON SHERIFF again shaped better than the bare result at Beverley 2 weeks ago, travelling best when not clear run over 1f out, and is worth persevering with at this lowly level. Redzone took a step back in the right direction in this headgear at Redcar and is on a fair mark if building on that, while Sixcor should give another good account.
