Forecasts

Brasil Power (1/3), Flash The Dash (15/2), Mythical Molly (15/2), Freedom Charter (12/1), Selfish Brian (14/1), A Better World (28/1), Bukela (50/1), Miss World (80/1)

BRASIL POWER wasn't beaten far when third at Yarmouth last time and a repeat performance should be enough for him to open his account unless one of the newcomers in opposition proves to be above average. On paper, Freedom Charter and Selfish Brian look the most appealing alternatives.
