Forecasts

Catch My Breath (9/4), Mr Fustic (10/3), Mabre (5/1), Celestial Point (7/1), Hellavapace (17/2), Agent Of Fortune (12/1), Fly The Nest (14/1), Winnetka (16/1), Mr Mac (16/1), Gold Coast (50/1)

CELESTIAL POINT could have more to offer this year and can make a successful return. Mr Fustic has one of these in him and is worth a look on his first run for 4 months. Mabre should be on the premises again.
