Verdict

Johnny Murtagh took this prestigious event 12 months ago and can repeat the feat with his dual C&D scorer CARRYTHEONE, who still has relatively few miles on the clock and can build on his good fifth in 2022 with promising 10 lb claimer Yudish Geerdharry an eye-catching booking. Adrian McGuinness comes here mob-handed and his handily-weighted Comfort Line (second last season) could emerge as the pick on his yard debut. English-trained duo Totally Charming and Lattam complete the shortlist.

  1. CARRYTHEONE
  2. COMFORT LINE (IRE)
  3. TOTALLY CHARMING
