Verdict

RASHAAN can land the spoils in this contest for the third year in a row. The seven-year-old can be expected to be primed for his hat-trick bid following a couple of below-par run outs in February and can get the better of previous Dundalk conqueror, Chess Grand Master and the Gavin Cromwell-trained Prospectus. The Charles Byrnes-trained Waterville Dancer deserves plenty of respect, but has a 223 day lay-off to overcome.
