Beckett Fancies His Chances


Ralph Beckett has high hopes for his two runners, Oasis Dancer and Mahadee, in the totesport Mile at Goodwood on Friday.

Oasis Dancer tackles seasoned older handicappers for the first time after bouncing back from a fruitless trip to the Curragh for the Irish 2000 Guineas with victory in a Newbury conditions' race.

"I'm looking forward to running him. He's got a good draw (19) and he's in good nick. He should run well. Whether he's good enough we will find out on Friday. He's a nice horse. He's got the right draw so we're on the right leg," said the Whitsbury trainer.
