Forecasts

Law Of One (1/2), Galahad Threepwood (10/3), Captain Haddock (9/1), Flight Path (18/1), Irene's Dream (25/1), Commander Of War (28/1), Megans Approach (40/1), Dalt Vila (66/1), Irish Master (150/1)

LAW OF ONE didn't do a great deal wrong despite failing to land the odds both starts during the autumn and this looks to be a very good opening. Galahad Threepwood is a solid rival, while Flight Path should know more this time.
