Forecasts

One More (10/3), Huscal (4/1), Metaverse (9/2), Best Rate (7/1), Tennessee Gold (8/1), Calyxoh (9/1), Obelix (14/1), Follow Your Heart (18/1), Longlai (18/1), Silver Samurai (18/1), Society Man (22/1), Al Ameen (28/1), Wodao (40/1), Tasdeed (50/1)

Richard Hannon looks to hold a strong hand and his improving ONE MORE is taken to bag a second C&D success and thwart stablemate Best Rate who figures on a handy mark. Others to consider in an open contest include Huscal, Silver Samurai and Obelix.
