View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Turned out again quickly under a 6lb penalty after a determined success at Bath last week, FANCY DANCER can follow up with Jack Nicholls taking off a valuable 7lb. Golden Rainbow has been knocking on the door of late and is likely to be thereabouts again, along with stablemate One Of Our Own. Starsong and Ideal Guest may also have a say in proceedings.
