Forecasts

A Case Of You (9/4), Poetic Flare (3/1), Monaasib (11/2), Horoscope (8/1), Merchants Quay (12/1), Magnanimous (16/1), Ace Aussie (18/1), Matchless (20/1), Laws Of Indices (22/1), Snapraeterea (22/1), Charterhouse (28/1), Notre Belle Bete (150/1)

POETIC FLARE posted a borderline smart performance to land the Group 3 Killavullan Stakes over C&D in October and appeals as the type to make his mark at an even higher level this season. A Case of You didn't need to improve to complete the hat-trick on his return at Dundalk but there should still be better to come from him, with Monaasib and Horoscope others to consider.
