Verdict

Several in with chances but VEE DANCER bettered previous Flat efforts to score over 2m at Dundalk 6 weeks ago and with further improvement on the cards, Ronan McNally's 8-y-o gets the nod to go in again. Black Hawk Eagle may well emerge as the main danger provided he's ready to roll after 6 months off, with Secret Rock and Paradise Lost another couple worth considering.

  1. VEE DANCER (IRE)
  2. SECRET ROCK (IRE)
  3. BLACK HAWK EAGLE (IRE)
