Forecasts

Oscars Brother (11/10), The Story So Far (2/1), Find A Fortune (16/5), Givehimthehonour (13/2), Mickie Angel (14/1), Glorious Singer (50/1), Onebrightbluerose (125/1)

FIND A FORTUNE is improving as he gains in experience and can open his account now at the chief expense of Oscars Brother who rates a big threat on the back of his Cork second last time out. Givehimthehonour appeals as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
