Verdict

SKONTONOVSKI had been given a chance by the handicapper and took advantage when returning to winning ways at Dundalk last week. Able to race off a 2 lb lower mark here, he makes fair appeal in his follow-up bid. Ano Manna and Portmagee head the list of dangers.

  1. SKONTONOVSKI
  2. ANO MANNA (IRE)
  3. PORTMAGEE (IRE)
