Verdict

LUIS VAN ZANDT has quickly found his stride for new trainer Gavin Cromwell and is taken to defy the handicapper and add to his Gowran win. Dawson's Cottage has been in fine form since the resumption and is likely to give another good account, while Arthur's Baby has been much improved since switched to handicaps and could well have even more to offer.

  1. LUIS VAN ZANDT (IRE)
  2. DAWSON'S COTTAGE (IRE)
  3. ARTHUR'S BABY (IRE)
