Forecasts

Ernest Gray (5/2), Mythical Hero (5/2), Benign Dictator (11/2), Present Fair (6/1), Caherty Road (11/1), Ez Tiger (12/1), Duffys Getaway (18/1), How Will I Know (20/1), Silent Star (25/1)

Verdict

ERNEST GRAY fetched €62,000 as a 3-y-o and the hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. He is one of two likely-looking newcomers, the other being Mythical Hero. Present Fair and Duffys Getaway both make some each-way appeal.

  1. ERNEST GRAY (IRE)
  2. MYTHICAL HERO (IRE)
  3. PRESENT FAIR (IRE)
