Forecasts

Prince Zaltar (11/4), Jump The Shark (7/2), Aide De Camp (5/1), Pat Coyne (6/1), Gaius (6/1), Garcon Doux (13/2), Teescomponentsyess (18/1), Kingston Retreat (22/1), Smitty Bacall (25/1), Criminal Mischief (33/1), Craic Eile (50/1), Ennemi Public (100/1)

Verdict

JUMP THE SHARK is going the right way and is worth backing to go one better than his recent second at Cork. Prince Zaltar is the main danger and Pat Coyne also merits consideration.
