Forecasts

Dingle (9/4), Dance At Night (4/1), Year Of The Dragon (9/2), Lammas (11/2), Uzincso (11/1), Sanaadh (14/1), Homer Stokes (16/1), Mostawaa (18/1), Pinnata (22/1), Larado (22/1)

YEAR OF THE DRAGON shaped well in a couple of competitive 3-y-o handicaps last term and he appeals as the type to do better still this year, so a chance is taken on him to make a winning reappearance in an open race. Dingle showed a good attitude to open his account at Lingfield, so he's feared having gone up 3 lb, while the hat-trick seeking Lammas can make his presence felt once more.
