Monition (1/1), Killinkere (4/1), Happy Lad (5/1), Hello Pilgrim (5/1), Generator City (13/2), Downthecellar (12/1), Airdrigh (33/1), Eileens Boy (33/1), Repeat That (66/1)

Verdict

The Gordon Elliott yard hold a strong hand in this contest with Arcadio gelding Killinkere an interesting declaration for this contest, while the ultra consistent MONITION will look to break his duck at the 15th time of asking for connections. The Gigginstown House Stud-owned six-year-old can get off the mark holding off the attentions of his stablemate and those of Wexford second, Hello Pilgrim and the 107-rated Happy Lad.
  1. Monition
