Forecasts

Calin's Lad (9/4), Back From Dubai (7/2), Youllovemewheniwin (9/2), The Nail Gunner (6/1), Porfin (6/1), Elland Road Boy (8/1), Abel Handy (8/1), Symbol of Hope (16/1), Red Walls (22/1), Sparkling Diamond (66/1)

BACK FROM DUBAI has built up a superb record at Southwell but looked back in top form when third over 8.6f here last week. Versatile regarding trip, he looks the way to go from his inside stall. Cailin's Lad needs a strongly-run race over 6f but is of interest, along with Youllovemewheniwin.
