Verdict

SATURN showed plenty when second at the Curragh on debut and, with improvement on the cards, he's fancied to open his account at the second attempt. Kadeen looks the obvious danger but a quick return to form from Teorie would give him a solid chance.

  1. SATURN (IRE)
  2. KADEEN (IRE)
  3. TEORIE (IRE)
