Forecasts

Ginto (5/6), Now Where Or When (5/2), Shantreusse (4/1), The Flier Begley (12/1), Gatsby Grey (20/1), Mr Hailstone (33/1), Dicey Rylee (33/1), Captain Planet (50/1), If Not For Dylan (80/1), Noble Court (100/1), Elite Oak (100/1), Taxi Rank (250/1)

Point winner GINTO was turned over at prohibitive odds at Fairyhouse on Rules debut but showed more than enough to think he can gain compensation in what looks a fairly run-of-the-mill bumper. Now Where Or When was better than the result when third here last time, so he's considered a danger along with his stablemate The Flier Begley.
