Verdict

Plenty in with a shout and a tentative vote goes to TURBO who bounced back in style with a Tramore victory and seems sure to go close under a 5 lb penalty. Cooldine Bog is on a lengthy losing run but can make his presence felt off a reduced mark, while in-form My Manekineko is another who needs considering in a very open contest.

  1. TURBO (IRE)
  2. COOLDINE BOG (IRE)
  3. MY MANEKINEKO
