Verdict

GORKI D'AIRY has shown more than enough in his two completed start over hurdles to suggest that a race of this nature would be well within his grasp. Indeed, it was a stronger maiden in which he was third over 19f here last time and this drop back in trip shouldn't be a problem. Mahons Glory is second choice, while hurdles debutant Lieutenant Highway and Malinas Glory are others to consider.

  1. GORKI D'AIRY (FR)
  2. MAHONS GLORY (IRE)
  3. LIEUTENANT HIGHWAY (IRE)
