Verdict

After respectful defeats to Jatiluwih and Espoir De Romay this season, WEST CORK has found his opportunity to get off the mark over hurdles dropping in trip. Another dropping in trip is Known, who may well have gone closer here last time out but for having his momentum checked on the the home turn whilst Mandalayan made a promising start to his hurdling career at Taunton and should be able to build on that performance.
  1. West Cork
  2. Known
  3. Mandalayan
