Forecasts

Security Code (2/1), Diderot (10/3), Notre Belle Bete (4/1), Outbreak (7/1), Lord Of The Lodge (8/1), Hafeet Alain (18/1), Intuitive (20/1), Imperial Sands (33/1)

The potentially smart SECURITY CODE is fancied to make up for lost time and defy an opening mark of 90. Notre Belle Bete can give the selection most to think about, with Diderot best of the others.
