Forecasts

Mullaghmurphy Blue (8/11), Double Captain (9/2), Isn't She Lovely (5/1), Cant Pay Wont Pay (9/1), Buzzkillbob (12/1), Insufficient Funds (14/1), Doc Carver (16/1)

Verdict

The market should say plenty but MULLAGHMURPHY BLUE looks the improving one and with the services of Jamie Codd on board, can take this on the way to better things. Isn't she Lovely has a question mark on the ground but may take second ahead of Double Captain and Insufficient Funds.
  1. Mullaghmurphy Blue
  2. Isn't She Lovely
  3. Double Captain
