Verdict

PILLAR lurks on a dangerous mark and is typically holding his racing well so could be worth chancing to get the rub of the green. Last year's winner Doonard Prince is respected back from a short break, while the consistent Teddy Boy and Fool Proof could also figure.

  1. PILLAR
  2. DOONARD PRINCE (IRE)
  3. FOOL PROOF (IRE)
