Verdict

There was plenty to be enthusiastic about after NITRO BOOST finished second on debut at the Curragh over this trip. With normal improvement on that run, Willie McCreery's charge ought to prove tough to hold here. Darkash continues to go well, including last time over this trip, and can be in the firing line again, while Compton's Finale and Montalvan are both potential improvers.
  1. Nitro Boost
  2. Darkash
  3. Compton's Finale
