Verdict

PRIME CHIEF was value for more than the winning margin suggested when scoring at Cork just over a fortnight ago, putting the race to bed over 2f out and eased late on. He's taken to defy an 8 lb rise and double his career tally with the talented Dylan McMonagle keeping the ride. Sleepy Head, Chateau Musar and Wojood are a trio of others to consider.

  1. PRIME CHIEF (IRE)
  2. SLEEPY HEAD (IRE)
  3. CHATEAU MUSAR (IRE)
