Forecasts

Jack Berry House (2/1), Time And Money (10/3), Never Back Down (9/2), Ecliptic Moon (15/2), Masalai (9/1), Koybig (11/1), Miss Cunning (11/1), Munfallet (25/1), Boasty (28/1), Just My Type (100/1)

TIME AND MONEY is bang in form and has been dropped 2 lb since things conspired against him when only sixth in a handicap here recently, so he's taken find enough improvement to open his account in a competitive affair. Recent winners Jack Berry House and Boasty look sure to provide stern opposition.
