Verdict

ROCKBURY LAD caught the eye when fourth over 7f here on Monday, shaping better than the bare result for a second start in succession, so provided this outing doesn't come too soon, he's fancied to open his account. Grappa Nonino is sure to be popular after his runner-up effort at the Curragh 5 weeks ago so he heads up the opposition with the cheekpieces back on, ahead of Flame of Eire and Lamprog.

  1. ROCKBURY LAD
  2. GRAPPA NONINO (IRE)
  3. FLAME OF EIRE (IRE)
