Forecasts

Fisherman's Beach (8/11), Yamalia Star (9/5), Metamorpheus (6/1), Acquest (13/2), Great Cat Mau (13/2), Hardpoint (15/2), Boston Bongo (66/1), Mayo For Sam (80/1), Annalough (100/1), Tom Red (100/1), Cold Cold Heart (150/1), Navajo River (200/1), Dark Miss (200/1), Awakino (200/1)

FISHERMAN'S BEACH has had his debut third franked by the runner-up winning since and can strike at the second time of asking. Jack Davison's Yamaila Star is next best on form, although if the market speaks for him it could be that the chief threat comes from the well-bred Jessie Harrington newcomer Hardpoint.
