Verdict

CEALLACH was firmly on the up when last seen out at Dundalk in December and is fancied to return in style after his break and complete a hat-trick. Fellow hat-trick seeker Brave Troop is feared most, with C&D scorer Wild Dollar another who can have a big say in an open handicap.

  1. CEALLACH (IRE)
  2. BRAVE TROOP (IRE)
  3. WILD DOLLAR (IRE)
