Verdict

RULE OF JUNE finished to good effect when runner-up at Clonmel 11 days ago and she's well worth the chance to go one better in a weak race for the numbers. Legacy of Dreams is considered the main danger after scoring at Limerick last month and Drimsfree Lad is worthy of consideration despite his long-standing maiden tag.

  1. RULE OF JUNE (IRE)
  2. LEGACY OF DREAMS (FR)
  3. DRIMSREE LAD (IRE)
