Verdict

Joseph O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand here, with WINNER TAKES ITALL, who has scored on the Flat since his promising second in a big-field handicap hurdle in the autumn, narrowly preferred to last year's winner The Moyglass Flyer. Sea Ducor, Hybery and Beyond The Law are others on the shortlist in this very competitive handicap.

  1. WINNER TAKES ITALL (FR)
  2. THE MOYGLASS FLYER (IRE)
  3. SEA DUCOR
