Verdict

The vote goes to LONGBOURN, who is taken to gain reward for a trio of good efforts this term. Dream Tale ran right up to his best when headed close home at Leopardstown last week, so must enter calculations, along with Protagonist and Imposing Supreme.

  1. LONGBOURN (IRE)
  2. DREAM TALE
