Forecasts

Big Bard (9/4), Brunel Charm (7/2), Mary Of Modena (4/1), Roman Spring (6/1), Hint Of Humour (6/1), Rusheen Boy (11/1), Dark Sorceress (12/1), Rumba Bay (12/1), Fai Fai (12/1), Stalingrad (16/1), Mollymook (25/1), Arlecchino's Gift (50/1)

ROMAN SPRING was beaten narrowly by Mary of Modena at this C&D 2 weeks ago but is better drawn this time and could turn the tables. Brunel Charm is another big player.
