Verdict

Having got off the mark with any amount in hand at Listowel on Saturday, GIUSTINO is a confident selection to supplement that victory under a penalty provided this doesn't come too soon. Knock Flyer would have given the principals much more to think about had he broken on terms and not met trouble at Naas in April so he heads up the dangers, ahead of Slieve Bearnagh and Is Fantastic.

  1. GIUSTINO
