A real international gathering with runners from Britain, Ireland and France all doing battle in a race that has had five Irish winners since 2010. Enda Bolger is the name most associated with this sort of event and he runs three with the classy Yanworth and the ever-reliable Josies Orders the pick of his three runners. Neverushacon looks the pick of the remaining runners from across the Irish Sea. The French have never won this event but did supply a 1-2 over C&D last month and in EASYSLAND they have a fascinating contender who at 5yo could be a rising star. Of the Brits Chic Name, and last year’s winner Fact Of the Matter may find the ground against them which makes Rolling Dylan the pick.
