Forecasts

Cool Dandy (18/5), Millionaire Waltz (4/1), Jems Bond (5/1), Gold Ring (15/2), Must Be An Angel (17/2), Bobby Joe Leg (11/1), Rain Cap (16/1), Feel The Thunder (18/1), Beechwood Emily (20/1), Better By Far (25/1), Sestriere (28/1), Whipsaw (33/1), Charlesishere (40/1), Rocket Rod (50/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which COOL DANDY is worth another chance to add to last mont's C&D win having possibly found the run coming too quickly when only sixth here last time. Must Be An Angel is still bidding for a first success but weighted to have a big say while recent Catterick scorer Rain Cap is another high on the shortlist.
