Forecasts

Ballymount Boy (10/11), Gamraan (11/4), Media Shooter (4/1), Jonny Concrete (4/1), Union Island (9/1)

JONNY CONCRETE split a pair of subsequent winners when just failing to make a successful debut over C&D last month so gets the vote. Greenness prevented Ballymount Boy from scoring first-time up at Newcastle so he's the obvious threat.
