Forecasts

Magnetar (15/8), Man Of Eden (4/1), Simpson's Paradox (9/2), Golden Temple (13/2), Newport (8/1), Alexandroupolis (17/2), Espionage (17/2), Harsh (14/1), Allesnick (28/1), Trachonitus (33/1), Divus Romulus (150/1), Cloughaneely Mor (150/1)

Aidan O'Brien saddles a couple of likely-looking newcomers in ESPIONAGE and Alexandroupolis, with the former preferred before market clues. Magnetar is just about the most persuasive of those with experience.
