Forecasts

Great Dream (10/3), Cristo (4/1), Happy Banner (9/2), Dovey Moon (13/2), Aspull (15/2), King's Vanity (10/1), Silca Bay (11/1), Champagne Powder (11/1), Nakaaha (16/1), Kodi Fire (16/1), Glistening (18/1), Tanmawwy (50/1)

A competitive handicap but GREAT DREAM starts life for William Haggas on an attractive mark so looks the way to go on his seasonal return. Both Kodi Fire (second choice) and Dovey Moon should strip sharper for their respective reappearances and can emerge as the main dangers, although Nakaaha and Happy Banner are not out of things either.
