Verdict

BOUNDLESS OCEAN showed useful form when not beaten far in a couple of Group 3s at Leopardstown in October and sets a clear standard back in a maiden on return. Karakoul left his debut well behind when going close in a decent Killarney maiden in the summer so is a potential threat, while Ivy League and Culcor are a couple of well-bred newcomers to note.

  1. BOUNDLESS OCEAN (IRE)
  2. KARAKOUL (IRE)
  3. IVY LEAGUE (IRE)
