Verdict

Those with experience don't set the bar high so it'll be a surprise if this doesn't go to a newcomer. Monalee's half-brother FIRM FOOTINGS gets a tentative vote but Willie Mullins pair Lisnagar Fortune and Vadsa Queen, Jessie Harrington's Summer Gale and the Charles Byrnes-trained Hopeforarun are other likely types on paper in a contest where the betting is sure to be informative.
