Verdict

PERFECT TAPATINO was heavily backed at the Curragh on Saturday and duly prevailed in a huge field handicap. The 6lb penalty here is unlikely to stop him and he gets the vote for a trainer with a great record at this course. Neither Lizard Point or Pushaq have ever won on turf but both have gone close to seeing to that lately and the pair are both legitimate contenders here.
  1. Perfect Tapatino
  2. Lizard Point
  3. Pushaq
