Forecasts

State Flag (5/2), Land Of Magic (4/1), Wonder Smile (11/2), Where's Freddy (11/2), Tayala (7/1), Red Maids (10/1), Clipsham La Habana (12/1), Dream Seeker (12/1), Freetodream (12/1), Follow Your Heart (12/1), Forever A Diamond (14/1), Achillea (16/1)

Plenty are in with a shout but WHERE'S FREDDY showed the benefit of cheekpieces when a ready Newmarket scorer last time so is taken to defy a 7 lb weights rise with the headgear again sported. State Flag could emerge as the main danger on the back of her C&D victory with in-form pair Wonder Smile and Clipsham La Habana also in the mix. Freetodream completes the shortlist.
