Verdict

A tricky contest with several improvers in the line-up but it might be worth taking a chance on ONE COOL POET who recorded a remarkable hat-trick at the Galway Festival this year. Freshened up with a 42-day break, he may be able to resume progress from his revised handicap mark. Willie Mullins has a fine record in this race and Buildmeupbuttercup appears to be the pick of his pair. Barbados isn't ruled out if the first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect. Kastasa is another that enters calculations.
  1. One Cool Poet
  2. Buildmeupbuttercup
  3. Kastasa
