Verdict

CHATHAM STREET LAD was highly impressive when scoring at Cork recently and is fancied to defy a 9-lb rise despite this much stiffer assignment. Massey's Wood is a big danger following his winning debut for Barry Connell and Crossed My Mind also warrants plenty of respect in a hot contest.

  1. CHATHAM STREET LAD (IRE)
  2. BOIS DE CLAMART (FR)
  3. CROSSED MY MIND (IRE)
