Forecasts

Dream For Gold (4/5), Erosion Risk (2/1), Fornham St Martin (8/1), Doves Of Peace (14/1), Quinault (18/1), Gypsy Nation (18/1), Mr Jetman (40/1), Smart Shot (250/1)

A good opportunity for DREAM FOR GOLD, who was beaten only by a useful sort at York when last seen in September. Erosion Risk can hit the frame again, while the drop to 5f should suit expensive Breeze-Up purchase Quinault on his debut for new connections.
