Verdict

If the blinkers work as well a second time for ARDHILL then he might be up to defying a rise for Ascot as that form looks strong. Enniskerry progressed well in maiden/novices last summer and is a potentially dangerous opponent if primed for this after 7 months off. Carrig Sam, a debut scorer, and the selection's stablemate Festival d'Ex are also on the shortlist.

  1. ARDHILL (IRE)
  2. ENNISKERRY (IRE)
  3. CARRIG SAM (IRE)
