Forecasts

Simpson's Paradox (1/1), Grey Leader (4/1), Feach Amach (9/2), No Big Deal (9/1), Spanish Saint (11/1), Macinamillion (28/1), Famous Enough (33/1), Navy Beach (33/1), Rough And Tough (40/1), Kelly's Out (125/1)

SIMPSON'S PARADOX was a little disappointing on his final 2-y-o start but his Galway third prior to that is solid and he can bounce back and strike on his reappearance. No Big Deal and Grey Leader showed promise on their recent debuts and can give Jessica Harrington's charge most to think about.
