...odds on the three favorites. A forecast bet is similar to a quinel-la in the U.S., that is, picking the first two finishers in order.

Evil Eye Fleagle Max Byrd threatened to steal the show everytime he appeared just by standing around with his incredibly plastic face; when he talked and threw whammies around even Mammy Yokum, superbly played by Susan Medcalf, was overwhelmed...
