Verdict

SANIBEL ISLAND was denied very late on by Four Country Roads at Navan just under 6 weeks ago, but Michael Hourigan's 11-y-o is fancied to come out on top here and notch his third success of the season. Fox Le Bel is a consistent sort so he may be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Full Noise and Quarry Lil another couple anticipated to be involved.

  1. SANIBEL ISLAND (IRE)
  2. FOX LE BEL (FR)
  3. FULL NOISE (IRE)
