Forecasts

Sun Festival (7/4), Long Call (7/2), Letter Of The Law (11/2), Habanero Star (6/1), Cape Cornwall Rose (6/1), No Diggity (12/1), The Guvnor (28/1), Moorgate (100/1)

Preference is for SUN FESTIVAL, who was rewarded for his consistency when scoring here last month and arrives on the back of a solid third at Newcastle. Long Call and Letter of The Law rate the principal dangers.
