Forecasts

Monbeg Oscar (6/5), Master Of Irony (13/8), Broughtons Rhythm (9/2), Land League (14/1), I'm Still Waiting (20/1), Angel In The Snow (50/1), Picknick Park (100/1), Short Flight (100/1)

A weak opening contest in which MASTER OF IRONY looks the most solid proposition and is taken to defy a penalty and score. John Quinn's five-year-old will probably stay a fair bit further than this and ran well under his penalty last time. This does not look to be as strong a contest and he can take advantage. Monbeg Oscar has shown glimpses of ability and could build on that to take a hand, while money for Picknick Park would be interesting. Angel In The Snow receives the sex allowance and wouldn't have to be anything special to get involved. 1. Master Of Irony 2. Monbeg Oscar 3. Angel In The Snow
