Forecasts

Sandyman (2/1), Up And Out (7/2), Pettigo (7/2), Moneynabane (13/2), Chancer Dancer (9/1), Mabel In May (14/1), Pride Of Hawridge (16/1), Juke Box Rock (20/1), Renard De Noir (22/1), Kartel And Co (33/1), Mason Lady (100/1)

SANDYMAN caught the eye when fourth here on his first run for his current yard and looks the way to go now reverted to this sphere after a couple of runs on the Flat. Gordon Elliott's in-form maiden Up And Out could emerge as the main danger with Pettigo and Renard de Noir rating the pick of the rest for place purposes.
