Verdict

A tricky closer to solve but preference is for CLIFFTOP, who ended a losing run stretching back almost 2 years at Leopardstown last month and has run well in defeat on both starts subsequently (including over hurdles). He's taken to strike again given his current mood. Clan Jock, Final Endeavour and Strip Light are a trio of possible dangers.

  1. CLIFFTOP
  2. CLAN JOCK (IRE)
  3. FINAL ENDEAVOUR (IRE)
