Youcannotbeserious (15/8), Harold Peto (5/1), Kaiser Black (6/1), Gettysburg Address (8/1), Political Theatre (8/1), Broken Soul (8/1), Wishmoor (12/1), Bosco Di Alco (20/1), Kopookris (25/1), Colwinston (66/1), Artical Eleven (66/1), Iusetaluvheronce (66/1), Whitango (100/1), Nancys Icon (100/1), William Tyndale (100/1)

Verdict

Broken Soul is sure to be popular once more but it was a bit of a letdown the manner in which he was beaten at Navan a fortnight ago, though he should be capable of better. Youcannotbeserious merits consideration on his run here at Christmas but he too has since run a less promising race at Naas. HAROLD PETO was an eyecatcher around here in that same December contest and has since come forward to finish a good second over a shorter trip. On his third start and with the potential for more to come, he is taken to score. Gettysburg Address gets conditions that should prove more favourable in this contest and is capable of having a big say while Bosco Di Alco is another that has shown flashes of potential already. Political Theatre improved on his second run and, while held by the selection on form, could be ready to offer more still. Kaiser Black needs some improvement to be a force but jockey bookings suggest more is anticipated.
  1. Harold Peto
  2. Gettysburg Address
  3. Broken Soul
