Verdict

A few with chances but JON RIGGENS can race off a 1 lb lower mark than when a good Naas third last time when faring best of those that raced in the centre of the track so gets the vote. C&D winner Mickey The Steel is next on the list on the back of his good Naas second, with course scorer Tawaazon appealing as the pick of the rest for place purposes.

  1. JON RIGGENS (IRE)
  2. MICKEY THE STEEL
  3. TAWAAZON (IRE)
