Forecasts

Dougies Dream (10/3), Kodebreaker (4/1), Zafaan (6/1), Curious Mrs Fox (13/2), Crown's Lady (7/1), Due Consideration (9/1), Finn Ironside (11/1), Persian Phoenix (11/1), Coligone Kate (12/1), Havana Sky (14/1)

KODEBREAKER wasn't seen to best effect over 7f at Wolverhampton earlier in the week and can bounce back to form with a bang now returning to 1m. Crown's Lady seemed to find her stamina stretched when stepped up to 1¼m last time and is respected back at the trip she made all over at Ripon last month. C&D scorer Dougie's Dream completes the shortlist.
