Verdict

GUSTAV HOLST has put up a couple of fairly useful efforts in defeat this year and with a reproduction of either of those should be able to get off the mark at the third attempt. He doesn't yet look the finished article and should still improve. The main threat could be Garden Paradise, who was seen to good effect from the front when second just under a fortnight ago, ahead of Valley Forge.

  1. GUSTAV HOLST (IRE)
  2. GARDEN PARADISE (IRE)
  3. VALLEY FORGE
