Forecasts

Sugar Baby (11/4), Glory Fighter (11/4), Spring Is Sprung (10/3), Dickieburd (10/3), Rock Melody (4/1), Chookie Dunedin (10/1), Cavalier Approach (10/1), Hard Nut (50/1)

Paul Midgley looks to hold a strong hand here and his emphatic Catterick scorer GLORY FIGHTER can defy an 8 lb hike in the weights and lead home his in-form stablemate Spring Is Sprung. Cavalier Approach and Dickieburd appeal as the pick of the remainder and can fight it out for minor honours.
