Verdict

The hat-trick seeking MILL QUEST is tough to get away from. She'll go on any ground and made a seamless transition to chasing when winning at Tramore recently, Gordon Elliott's charge is likely going to have plenty more to offer in this sphere. C&D winner Consharon Boy should ensure an honest race is on the cards while Tramore winner Matin D'Anjou has the potential to get this trip. Dont Kick Nor Bite and Ringrone Castle, raised 9lb for a Roscommon success, can do battle for minors.
  1. Mill Quest
  2. Consharon Boy
  3. Matin D'Anjou
