Verdict

Last year's winner PRIME CHIEF returns with his yard in good form and it would be no surprise to see him take the prize again. Fennor Cross took another step up the ladder when scoring at Cork and can go well again. Dudley's Bar is lightly raced and could give a good account in first-time cheekpieces.
