Forecasts

The Grafter (2/1), Crystal Glance (7/2), Dance And Glance (5/1), Waspy (5/1), Commanding View (6/1), Fandabidozi (13/2), Celtic Art (15/2), Queens Wish (10/1), Land Of Moon (14/1), Kel Raffles (18/1), Bareback Jack (25/1)

Several of these are appealing, none more so than THE GRAFTER, who has been knocking on the door pretty loudly and is taken to gain a much-deserved first success here. Waspy has been absent for the best part of two years but this very lightly-raced 7-y-o is of strong interest nonetheless now venturing down the handicap route, while Celtic Art and the hat-trick seeking Fandabidozi are live each-way contenders.
