Verdict

Having dropped in the weights, LIGHT IN THE SKY bounced back to his best when runner-up at this C&D 8 days ago and he can go one better back down in grade. The biggest threat could be Ballabawn who is respected on his handicap debut, while Weaver's Answer could also still have more to offer.

  1. LIGHT IN THE SKY (FR)
  2. BALLABAWN (IRE)
  3. WEAVER'S ANSWER
