Verdict

SEANBHOTHAR is going to make a better chaser than hurdler based on his course third at the end of August and is taken to build on that promise and strike for the Joseph O'Brien team. Gordon Elliott pair The Abbey, the second of 2 rides on the day for the returning Davy Russell, and Hurricane Georgie can give the selection most to think about.

  1. SEANBHOTHAR (IRE)
  2. THE ABBEY (IRE)
  3. HURRICANE GEORGIE (IRE)
