Verdict

The market is going to be the principle guide to this newcomers race. Gordon Elliot has had a successful campaign in bumpers this season and it will be interesting to see how the market aligns his runner here, THE SHEARERS WIFE, particularly in the absence of a runner from the Mullins camp. The yard have done well with their bumper runners here in the past and €40,000 purchase looks the one to beat. You Raised Me Up is another expensive purchase and has a nice pedigree as does State Of Nirvana. Vocarium looks another to note given his Flat pedigree. He is related to several winners on the Flat including Godolphin's good stayer Veracity.
  1. The Shearers Wife
  2. Vocarium
  3. You Raised Me Up
