NI Quarter-finals – Predict here

[The Statman]

This is the thread on which you should make your predictions on the quarter-finals of the Northern Ireland Trophy. This is also Round 4 of the Seasonlong Contest which will end with the World Final in May 2009.

Please note the Rules (http://www.thesnookerforum.com/board...ad.php?t=13755) – particularly, note that it is in your interest to use THIS MESSAGE as basis of your post, rather than basing it on a previous predictor’s post in the assumption that (s)he has correctly copied the draw.

The deadline for posting your predictions is the scheduled start of play, which is 1:00p.m. BST on Friday 29 August 2008. Any posts with a displayed time of 1:01p.m. or later on that day will be too late to be considered.

Hopefully I've got the next bit right this time...

Here is the draw – remember, best of 9, FIRST TO FIVE:

Stephen Maguire v. Dave Harold
John Higgins v. Ian McCulloch
Mark Allen v. Ali Carter
Barry Hawkins v. Ronnie O’Sullivan

Finally please predict the overall highest break of the above matches:
