Forecasts

No Diggity (11/4), Stringybark Creek (4/1), Love Destiny (6/1), Cashel (7/1), Plunger (15/2), Chetan (8/1), Evasive Power (10/1), Sepahi (14/1), Perfect Sunset (22/1), I Had A Dream (100/1)

This may go to CHETAN, who boasts a good course record and fared best of those ridden prominently at Lingfield last time. Plunger had little go right at Wolverhampton 12 days ago, so deserves another chance, while Stringybark Creek also has to be considered in first-time blinkers back down in trip.
