Forecasts

Sandra's Secret (2/1), Pipers Note (7/2), Gin In The Inn (13/2), Captain Colby (7/1), Henley (7/1), Dougan (9/1), Tomily (10/1), Mont Kiara (14/1), Intense Romance (20/1), Zylan (50/1)

Not a particularly deep contest on the face of it and PIPERS NOTE, who loves it here and won this race last year, can repeat the dose from 1lb lower. Captain Colby could pose a threat if bringing his 'A' game, while Sandra's Secret looks likely to be a danger and Gin In The Inn is not ruled out.
