Forecasts

Dunnington Lad (7/2), Dash Gordon (7/2), Dandy Fitz (9/2), Three Beauz (5/1), Mecca's Duchess (11/2), Golden Prosperity (10/1), Irish Dancer (18/1), Mews House (18/1), Captain Bentley (33/1), Brazen Belle (100/1)

A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for THREE BEAUZ to defy a 3 lb rise and follow up her recent breakthrough victory. Handicap debutant Dash Gordon could emerge as the main danger ahead of C&D winner Dandy Fitz.
