Verdict

Unsurprisingly plenty arrive with claims, and it could pay to take a chance on Cork eye-catcher TOSEN WISH. Very much catching the eye in the race won by re-opposing Earls on that occasion, he remains low-mileage on the back of just 4 career starts and can prove his mark lenient. Dunum, All Lies Ahead and aforementioned Earls head up the dangers in an ultra-competitive handicap.

  1. TOSEN WISH (IRE)
  2. DUNUM (IRE)
  3. ALL LIES AHEAD (IRE)
