Forecasts

El Bufalo (9/4), Bang On The Bell (3/1), Nogo's Dream (9/2), Master Of My Fate (9/2), Catch Cunningham (17/2), Popular Dream (17/2), Secret Mistral (9/1), Maris Angel (12/1), Cinque Verde (18/1)

Recent Lingfield winner MASTER OF MY FATE has an appealing all-weather record and remains feasibly treated. He can score again. Secret Mistral and Nogo's Dream can also make their presence felt.
