Verdict

C&D debut winner ENCHANTED MAGIC lacks experience but he could have plenty more to offer for new trainer Willie Mullins and gets the nod, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Hey Johnny can confirm Clonmel superiority over Marelly and give the selection most to think about.

  1. ENCHANTED MAGIC (IRE)
  2. HEY JOHNNY (IRE)
  3. MARELLY (IRE)
