Verdict

DOM OF MARY has left the impression he can defy his current mark if getting his jumping together so could be worth chancing. Dibble Decker is the obvious threat as he bids to make it 3 from 3 here, while Rocky Lake is worth another chance to confirm chase debut promise.

  1. DOM OF MARY (FR)
  2. DIBBLE DECKER (IRE)
  3. ROCKY LAKE (IRE)
