Forecasts

Just An Hour (5/2), Man Of Eden (5/2), Kalikapour (7/2), Initial Attempt (6/1), Curvature (15/2), Ninth Life (8/1), Cooler (12/1), Shanadar (16/1), Elmo Lincoln (33/1), Engines On (50/1), Free Flow (66/1), You Never Forget (66/1), Barney's Joy (80/1), Genuine Jim (80/1), Annorah (250/1), Cozy Cartel (250/1), Dar Og (300/1)

MAN OF EDEN is still not the finished article by any means and a reproduction of his nursery debut third at the Curragh back in September could well be enough for John O'Donoghue's charge to get off the mark. Just An Hour cost 450,000 gns as a yearling so he may well have a say in proceedings on debut for the in-form Joseph O'Brien, with Initial Attempt and Kalikapour another couple to consider.
