Forecasts

Galileo Sand (2/1), Claude (2/1), Midnight Jet (7/2), Power Of Words (10/1), Glenrush Bay (10/1), Le Diablo (12/1), Grey Jude (28/1), El Galvino (40/1), Luke The Crook (50/1), Little Dimmy (66/1), Coolnav (80/1), Ullr (125/1), Middlethird Marvel (200/1)

GALILEO SAND has achieved enough to think he can win a bumper in 2 runs this spring and gets the vote over Gordon Elliott's Power of Words, who made a promising start to his career in a Fairyhouse hurdle last month. The selection's stablemate Claude, the mount of Patrick Mullins, would also firmly enter the reckoning should the betting suggest he's fancied.
