Verdict

THE LAST MARDI had notably travelled best and was still going well when falling 2 out on his latest start at Wexford 4 weeks ago (looked likely winner) and Gordon Elliott's charge is fancied to make amends here. The returning Black Bamboo and recent bumper winner Walmix are others fancied to be thereabouts.

  1. THE LAST MARDI (IRE)
  2. BLACK BAMBOO (IRE)
  3. WALMIX (FR)
