Verdict

A host with chances in a competitive opener. GALA DE CORTON should have more to come for his top yard so gets the nod to follow up last month's 2m course success. Kavanaghs Cross, Romeo Brown, for whom the return to a longer trip should suit, Creative Control and recent C&D scorer Inishbiggle are others likely to be in the mix.

  1. GALA DE CORTON (FR)
  2. KAVANAGHS CROSS (IRE)
  3. ROMEO BROWN
