Forecasts

Flying Dolphin (7/4), Point Gellibrand (11/4), Vellner (4/1), Martinstown (5/1), Paris Lights (11/2), Malabu Drive (17/2), Painters Palette (20/1), Riyami (33/1), Secret Magician (50/1), Valleyoftheeagles (100/1), Not Just Any Eagle (150/1), Flying Argosy (150/1), Golden Acacia (150/1), Our Scholar (200/1)

FLYING DOLPHIN pushed an established rival close starting out at Leopardstown a month ago and with improvement forthcoming, he should take some stopping. Point Gellibrand should relish this trip and is a threat, with Martinstown a likely-looking newcomer.
