Verdict

A LA FRANCAISE has been knocking on the door lately and might prove the answer to this competitive opener. Last week's Ayr scorer Let Her Loose and C&D specialist Jamil are likely to be on the premises, while The Dancing Poet's very good record in this race also earns him a place on the shortlist.

  1. A LA FRANCAISE
  2. LET HER LOOSE (IRE)
  3. JAMIL (IRE)
