Forsaken, random attacks, ranks; Rules question

Hail fellow lords and ladies of chaos!

I am (still) working on a list themed around mutation, spawns and daemon princes and desire to use Forsaken as the heart of my force. I have noticed that some here use them in regiments of 10. When ranked up 5x2 how does the attacks of the second rank work? Is is the standard 1 attack per model or is it (I doubt but wish!) still the random attacks rule?
Many thanks!

Edit: Also, if I have a Tzeentch Lord riding a Dragon with the Ironcurse Icon would the Dragon benefit from the 6+ Ward or 5+? I believe it is the 6+ but I am hoping some one will surprise me!

It is only 1 attack from the second rank.

Monsters do not benefit from the raiders items.

i'ts obvious that if chcracter has f.e. armour of destiny, mount will not be able to use 4++, but
monsters should benefit from f.e. MR, ironcourse icon, because this items affects whole unit.

My thanks for the replies,
The Ironcurse Icon should bestow it's shooting ward save the monster as it states it benefits the character and his unit. I was just grasping at straws with the +1 to the ward passing over to the monster.

Sadly it is only one supporting attack for forsaken, I usually have my forsaken in units of 5 with Mark of slaanesh for a small, quick unit with some hard punching power, and no attacks are wasted :)
