Forecasts

Jazzy Dancer (7/4), Havana Notion (9/2), Hezahunk (11/2), Phil's Dream (6/1), American In Paris (17/2), Clarinbridge (14/1), Pro Bono Alexander (14/1), Net A Porter Queen (20/1), Super Cub (20/1), Shaaden (20/1), Cherry Bloom (25/1), Teddy Boy (40/1), Santa Fe (50/1), Thirtysecondstreet (50/1), Lorr's Girl (66/1), Autumnal Breeze (66/1), Florence Thompson (100/1)

JAZZY DANCER has been in top form lately and, from an excellent draw, he's worth a chance to gain some reward in a race where most look averagely handicapped. Hezahunk is an obvious danger if he matches the form he showed in a claimer last time and American In Paris is a dangerous one to rule out.
