Forecasts

Phoenix Dawn (11/4), Its A Sting (9/2), Le Capricieux (11/2), My Boy James (7/1), Rainy Day Dylan (8/1), Present Destiny (10/1), Cap Du Nord (12/1), Bazooka (12/1), Windspiel (14/1), Cheer's Delboy (20/1), Windshear (25/1), Pivotal Flame (50/1)

PHOENIX DAWN impressed when winning over hurdles at Ludlow last month and he can follow up by taking the concluding contest on his handicap debut. The selection has run well on the forecast going in the past and the bottom weight Cap Du Nord, another making his handicap debut can claim second on this occasion. The booking of Richard Johnson for Rainy Day Dylan catches the eye and he can put a disappointing handicap debut behind him by claiming third today.
