Verdict

A fairly useful operator on the Flat, IRISH POSEIDON matched that level at the second attempt over hurdles when third in a Killarney novice 15 days ago. There's more to come as he brushes up his jumping and he can come out on top. Gamin Original looks a likely improver for Willie Mullins and is feared, ahead of Gali Flight and Didn'tsleepawink.

  1. IRISH POSEIDON (GER)
  2. GAMIN ORIGINAL (FR)
  3. GALI FLIGHT (FR)
