Verdict

Not a strong maiden on paper and BALLYBOUGH NATIVE boasts the strongest credentials after his fine run at Punchestown in May. This stiffer test will suit and he can take another step forward with victory. Female Approach, Babylon Beach and Patricks Hill should be in the mix too.

  1. BALLYBOUGH NATIVE (IRE)
  2. FEMALE APPROACH (IRE)
  3. BABYLON BEACH (IRE)
