Forecasts

Derryhassen Paddy (11/8), Red Ned (9/4), Frisby (13/2), Jirko (7/1), Sovereign Star (8/1), Cusack Park (25/1)

RED NED didn't show much in points but he made an odds-on newcomer work hard starting out in bumpers at Southwell in November and he rates the percentage call. Derryhassen Paddy and Frisby both tasted success between the flags and market support for either would look significant.
