Forecasts

Willaston (7/2), Not So Simple (9/2), Maciver (5/1), Definiteadare (8/1), Lessofdnegativity (17/2), Siberian Star (10/1), Gotthenod (12/1), Icee M B A (12/1), Father Jed (18/1), Island Glory (20/1), Aliym (22/1), Ordered Lives (22/1), Caddy Shack (22/1), Allduckornodinner (33/1), Quarry Rebel (40/1), Top Question (50/1), Minella Away (50/1), Chosen Hour (66/1), Another Star (100/1)

MACIVER opened his account in ready fashion in a novice at Tramore 6 days ago and looks potentially well in with further progress on the cards now handicapping. Not So Simple and Lessofdenegativity arrive in good order and could both pose a threat.
