Forecasts

Prince Ali (16/5), Red Treasure (9/2), Dancing Gypsy (9/2), The Pug (11/2), Favorite Boy (11/2), Operatic Artist (8/1), Shot Of Love (10/1), Weloof (22/1), Billy Roberts (66/1)

A tightly-knit handicap in which RED TREASURE edges the vote on the back of her good recent Newcastle fourth with her stamina also drawn out more here. Course-winner Prince Ali seems sure to be on the premises too along with the handily-weighted Weloof and handicap-debutant Favorite Boy.
