Verdict

WARM IN GOREY has a good chance of reversing last month's Downpatrick placings with I Don't Get It and he could be the answer. The latter should give another good account and is second choice ahead of Princess Sophia, who returns to action with a first-time hood enlisted and will be a threat if on-song. Herculaneum and Perfect Arch are others to consider.

  1. WARM IN GOREY (IRE)
  2. I DON'T GET IT (IRE)
  3. PRINCESS SOPHIA (IRE)
