Verdict

A competitive finale. SPIRIT DANCER ran a couple of crackers in Class 2 handicaps last autumn and gets the nod dropped in grade on his return to action. Flyin' Solo definitely has more to come and could be a major threat if the outside stall doesn't prove too much of a hindrance. Aaddeey and Inchicore are others in this line-up whose best days should be ahead of them.

  1. SPIRIT DANCER
  2. FLYIN' SOLO
  3. AADDEEY (IRE)
