Forecasts

Dixie Bluebell (5/4), Jeroboam (16/5), Ferrybank (13/2), Shahaada (7/1), No Patience (11/1), Fly Girl (12/1), Uncharted (28/1)

DIXIE BLUEBELL overcame a troubled passage when landing a big-field maiden at Fairyhouse last week and from a very fair mark, she may well double up back in a handicap. Jeroboam was behind the selection that day but he can remain competitive, with Shahaada expected to get back on track.
