Forecasts

Reverberation (9/4), Mullacash Buzz (9/2), Sunset Nova (6/1), Linus Larrabee (6/1), The Bog Bank (7/1), Double Martini (12/1), Chummie (16/1), Helen De Pourtales (20/1), Sir Dotti (20/1), Kaswarah (25/1), Miss Cunning (40/1)

REVERBERATION was beaten ¾ length by Sunset Nova here on Monday but should be able to turn that form around on 7 lb better terms and is taken to finally get his head back in front. Recent C&D 1-2 Mullacash Buzz and The Bog Bank may give him most to do.
