Forecasts

Master Of My Fate (4/1), Rocking Ends (9/2), Nogo's Dream (5/1), Catch Cunningham (13/2), Grandlad (13/2), Jenever (15/2), Emperor Spirit (17/2), Tourist (10/1), Fletcher's Flight (16/1), Almaty Star (20/1), Jacquelina (40/1)

Plenty with chances but GRANDLAD rates just the pick of the weights off the same mark as when a resurgent Windsor second so gets the nod over Catch Cunningham who didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Lingfield recently. Jenever and Nogo's Dream also enter calculations along with Master of My Fate.
