Forecasts

Londoner (6/5), Ninth Life (10/3), Miners Gamble (11/2), Hosanna Power (10/1), Mighty Quiet (11/1), Cockalorum (12/1), Free Speech (18/1), Cougar (66/1), Idyllic (100/1)

NINTH LIFE figures off a handy mark and arrives on back of good third at Chelmsford last month. He gets the nod in a tricky-looking contest. Mighty Quiet and Hosanna Power are feared most.
