Verdict

APPLE ROCK and Apache Creek both arrive on the back of last-time-out victories and rate the pair to focus on. The former looked all about stamina when pulling clear with the runner-up at Carlisle 8 days ago in a strong race for the grade and narrowly shades the vote. Hahadi has been in good form for his new yard of late and completes the shortlist.

  1. APPLE ROCK (IRE)
  2. APACHE CREEK (IRE)
  3. HAHADI (IRE)
