Forecasts

Three Dons (4/5), Foinix (5/1), Stormingin (5/1), Sir Joseph Swan (10/1), French Martini (14/1), Kitten's Dream (20/1)

THREE DONS had a bit to spare at Lingfield on Saturday and this race doesn't look as competitive, so he's well fancied to defy a 5-lb penalty if he handles the quick turnaround. Foinix is the obvious threat and Stormingin could make his presence felt if in the mood.
