Verdict

CARYTO DES BROSSES and Fier Jaguen dominated this race a year ago and a similar scenario may well be on the cards again, with the placings selected to be reversed in the hope David Kemp's inmate is ridden slighter closer to his rival this time.

  1. CARYTO DES BROSSES (FR)
  2. FIER JAGUEN (FR)
  3. A JET OF OUR OWN (IRE)
