Forecasts

Kodiak Attack (11/8), Storm Melody (7/1), Dandy's Max (7/1), Nacho (8/1), Hot Hot Hot (10/1), Captain Ryan (10/1), Billy Dylan (11/1), Upside Down (18/1), Apache Mist (22/1), Kyllukey (40/1), Halwa Azyan (125/1)

A race which to a large degree revolves around KODIAK ATTACK who scored by 5 lengths on turf at Lingfield last week and so should take a bit of stopping under a penalty, even allowing for the fact he's drawn widest. Captain Ryan and Nacho should get involved in the battle for minor honours, while Hot Hot Hot needs a betting check under William Buick.
