Verdict

Plenty in with a squeak but ST CIANANS FIRE made it 3 wins from his last 4 starts over C&D 3 weeks ago and unbeaten under Conor Hoban, he can keep that record intact today. Mads Black Eights is tough to predict but she's certainly capable on a going day so she may give the selection most to think about, ahead of top-weight Yester. Reserves Dragon Roll and Princess Wannabe are both worth looking out for should either get a run, also.

  1. ST CIANANS FIRE (IRE)
  2. MADS BLACK EIGHTS (IRE)
  3. YESTER (IRE)
