Forecasts

Artisan Dancer (11/8), Tradesman (9/4), Chaos Control (5/1), Wonderful Eagle (8/1), Evening Story (11/1), Tessy Lad (50/1)

ARTISAN DANCER has been holding form well and could be marked up above the result slightly last time, so he makes most appeal in a tricky staying event. Wonderful Eagle is of note making his Flat debut for this stable and the in-form Tradesman is unlikely to be far away.
