Forecasts

Crack The Kode (2/1), Marie's Secret (3/1), Lady Ava (3/1), Celestial Flight (7/1), Goldmine Girl (17/2), Justahunch (10/1), Curious Mrs Fox (22/1), Red Iris (33/1), Wichahpi (80/1)

Those at the top of the weights make most appeal, with MARIE'S SECRET getting the nod on account of her latest Ripon third, having done well to go close after racing up with the strong gallop. Crack The Kode also merits plenty of respect after his success at Catterick last month, with nursery newcomer Lady Ava could also having more to offer.
