Forecasts

Shavout (3/1), Look For Hounds (4/1), Fight Song (5/1), Donald Mcdonald (5/1), Karoo Lark (5/1), Lion's Head (10/1), Magical Midlands (14/1), Gentleman's Wager (16/1), News Stream (16/1), Marchingontogether (20/1), Owlinthetree (40/1), Dark Moon Rising (40/1)

SHAVOUT improved here last time should go well again. Fight Song could provide the chief opposition, while Karoo Lark shouldn't be far away.
