Verdict

An ultra-competitive finale in which TEED UP gets the verdict. Emmet Mullins' charge was last seen opening his account over timber at the Galway Festival in July and he can take advantage of a reduced mark back on the level. Magellan Strait continues to go the right way so he heads up the opposition on handicap debut, with In From The Cold and Golden Twilight another couple worth considering.

  1. TEED UP (IRE)
  2. MAGELLAN STRAIT (IRE)
  3. IN FROM THE COLD (IRE)
