Verdict

Plenty in with a squeak but preference is for WEST OF WICHITA, who found things tougher when pestered for the lead at the Curragh last time, but Kevin Coleman's filly can leave that effort behind and open her account. Uncle Albert has been narrowly beaten on both starts in nurseries, so he's put forward as the main danger, with Barley Cove and Amerigo Vespucci another couple fancied to go well.

  1. WEST OF WICHITA (IRE)
  2. UNCLE ALBERT (IRE)
  3. BARLEY COVE (IRE)
