Forecasts

North Of Nashville (11/4), Happy D'ex (3/1), Dani Barcelona (9/2), Mary Meehan (5/1), Still Ciel (6/1), Watermelon Girl (18/1), Shesdoenwell (18/1), Trim To Milan (20/1), Delta Lodge (28/1), Crystal Pool (33/1), Chancer Dancer (40/1), Sula Warrior (50/1), Lily Bianca (80/1), Up She Flew (150/1)

HAPPY D'EX has been disappointing over hurdles so far given she made a winning bumper debut but she's in very good hands and is worth another chance to come good. North of Nashville is a player on her form from 2021, with Dani Barcelona sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut.
