Forecasts

Haarlem (7/2), George Handel (4/1), Star Coin (4/1), Oranjemund (9/2), Slainte Mhath (5/1), Roll Of The Dice (7/1), Anatolian Silver (8/1), Pardon Me (28/1), Downing Seven (33/1), Hospices De Beaune (33/1)

GEORGE HANDEL should give backers a run for their money. Star Coin is difficult to ignore, while Oranjemund shouldn't be discarded.
