Forecasts

Captain Dandy (6/4), Little Red Dancer (2/1), Beautron (11/2), Bedazzling (15/2), Artemis Flyer (16/1), Kasino (18/1), Azaim (28/1), Pub Club (50/1), Helianthus (66/1)

LITTLE RED DANCER upped her game to score at Catterick last week and her small stable has had another winner since, so she should have enough to defy a penalty in a weak race. Bedazzling was two places behind the selection that day but is well treated if able to build on it, so she's feared most ahead of Captain Dandy.
