Forecasts

Prairie Dancer (13/8), Feeling Tip Top (3/1), Cali Bay (4/1), Inca Prince (9/1), Urban Step (12/1), Black Cat Bobby (12/1), Chavajod (20/1), Aingeal Dorcha (25/1), Ben Asker (25/1), Hair Of Gold (28/1), Bears Hug (33/1), Too Bright (40/1), Aleen Cust (66/1), Tosto (80/1), Styledome (100/1), Ceapach Rua (100/1)

PRAIRIE has been crying out for a step up in trip so, despite a quick turnaround, he's taken to open his account at the fourth attempt trying 7f for the firt time. Feeling Tip Top is the main danger on form and Cali Bay looks the pick of the debutants.
