Forecasts

Lord Rapscallion (3/1), Charlie Mason (10/3), Book Of Life (4/1), Lady Wingalong (15/2), Flag Carrier (9/1), My Mate Mike (10/1), Honour Your Dreams (12/1), Rabinal (12/1), Lahina Bay (16/1), Zaltalla (25/1), Havana Touch (28/1), Shot Of Love (50/1)

A tricky handicap but BOOK OF LIFE can surely end his losing run soon and gets the vote over Charlie Mason and Lady Wingalong.
