Forecasts

Grand Gold (11/4), Leg Lock Luke (5/1), Dance Floor King (6/1), Only Gorgeous (7/1), Ray Diamond (9/1), Crown Hill (10/1), Tolkeins Tango (12/1), Last Shot (12/1), Headly's Bridge (14/1), Starkie (14/1), Winston Churchill (14/1)

This is a very tricky handicap and not too many can be scrubbed from the list. Ray Diamond and Crown Hill appeal from those at the bottom of the racecard, while Grand Gold is another who can make a good fist of things in spite of being shouldered with topweight. However, a tentative nod of prefer is given to DANCE FLOOR KING, who proved his well being with a solid effort last time out and has plenty on his favour in his bid to gain compensation for a near miss over course and distance. 1. Dance Floor King 2. Ray Diamond 3. Crown Hill
