Dandyman Port (9/2), Aspen Belle (5/1), Sors (11/2), Court Queen (11/2), Bluesbreaker (6/1), Captain Dion (13/2), Art Of Unity (7/1), Rantan (10/1), My Silver Nails (16/1), Zeb City (16/1)

Verdict

CAPTAIN DION is potentially on a useful mark for this having won off 85 on testing ground at Pontefract in September for his previous connections over 6f. He's been acquitting himself well on the AW since arriving in Ireland and is of interest now. Aspen Belle was in good tune at Naas in November when last spotted and may have more to offer this term while Art Of Unity has a chance these weights. Court Queen handles this sort of ground and is deemed capable of further progress this term.
  1. Captain Dion
  2. Aspen Belle
  3. Court Queen
