Forecasts

Dark Design (2/1), Amalfi Salsa (10/3), No Diggity (6/1), Lake Sand (7/1), Dors Toyboy (15/2), Levendi (15/2), Reformed Character (10/1), Shadow Angel (12/1), Essgee Nics (33/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which DARK DESIGN gets the nod given he can boast a course win and should be suited by this return to 1m having done good late work when third over 7f at Wolverhampton last week. In-form maiden Amalfi Salsa is feared most.
