Forecasts

Dunum (3/1), Hanbags N Gladrags (7/2), Corballis Flyer (5/1), Everylittlestep (7/1), Cool Leader (9/1), Never Back Down (12/1), Ballysax (14/1), Tara Power (16/1), Wychwood Whisper (16/1), Indiana Rose (18/1), Indian Lilac (20/1), Zaur (22/1), I Know I Can (40/1), Non Mollare (50/1), Angel On Fire (66/1), Angel Palanas (66/1), Forever My Girl (66/1), Rugadh Realta (80/1), Secret Wizard (100/1)

DUNUM improved a little to shed his maiden tag on his return/yard debut over this C&D last month and could have more to offer for his new stable. Hanbags N Gladrags did well to finish as close as she did after a slow start when fourth behind the selection that day so is respected, while Corballis Flyer arrives on the back of a career-best win over C&D last week.
