Forecasts

Lucky Question (1/1), Moondharrig (5/1), Nevada Brave (17/2), Darkened (10/1), Don't Look Now (12/1), Burvea (12/1), Prince Of Abington (14/1), Kartayaz (14/1), Flag High (28/1), Ciao Adios (33/1), Arctic Blaze (50/1), Minella Butterfly (50/1), Ayrton (50/1), Benz (100/1)

DON'T LOOK NOW took her form up a notch when fourth over C&D on her handicap bow and can open her account off an unchanged mark here. Darkened made an encouraging start for Denis Hogan when seventh here last month and is next on the list with Nevada Brave and Prince of Abington also in the picture.
