Forecasts

My Brother Mike (9/2), Street Jester (5/1), Estrela Star (11/2), Percy Prosecco (6/1), Cafe Sydney (15/2), Urban Forest (9/1), Limelighter (10/1), Pride Of Nepal (10/1), Legal Rights (10/1), Cherokee Dance (16/1), Nabhan (20/1), Eagles Dare (25/1), Para Mio (40/1), Shifting Gold (80/1)

A tightly-knit handicap. CHEROKEE DANCE made a good start for Ian Williams when runner-up at Newcastle and with few miles on the clock she is taken to gain a first win now the cheekpieces go back on. Cafe Sydney wasn't seen to best effect when sixth at Chester and should make her presence felt along with in-form duo Pride of Nepal and My Brother Mike.
