Verdict

Willie Mullins has saddled the winner of this seven times in the last eight years and ARCTIC FLY could be another for the all-conquering yard, for all that jockey bookings suggest that Bialystok is the stable first-string. Arctic Fly raised her game when making it 2-2 over hurdles at Galway where she proved much too good for the re-opposing Sherodan and there should be more to come from this 5-y-o. Bialystok is second choice ahead of the unexposed Birdie Or Bust.

  3. BIRDIE OR BUST (IRE)
