Verdict

CLOTH CAP has seen a promising career derailed by apparent physical problems, but he may be best caught fresh nowadays and has been given a chance by the handicapper (best effort last season when fourth from BHA mark of 156 first time out). The Mighty Don is another who has dropped to a tempting mark, while Broken Quest arrives better than ever.

  1. CLOTH CAP (IRE)
  2. THE MIGHTY DON (IRE)
  3. BROKEN QUEST (IRE)
