Forecasts

Real Quartz (13/8), Uptown Dandy (13/8), Freshers Week (4/1), Name Me Nicely (11/2)

Expensive point winner REAL QUARTZ justified strong support when winning with a bit in hand on hurdle debut and can follow up under a penalty. Uptown Dandy looks the danger following a promising first effort over hurdles at Wetherby last month.
