Verdict

Tony Martin's DRACO PULCHRAC has caught the eye on 2 of her 3 outings this year and gets the nod to resume winning ways. Last month's Killarney runner-up One Boss, last-time-out scorer Final Check and top weight Court of Appeal head the many possible dangers.

  1. DRACO PULCHRAC (IRE)
  2. ONE BOSS
  3. FINAL CHECK (IRE)
