Verdict

THE BOG BANK is nothing if not reliable and she is taken to deservedly get her head back in front having twice hit the crossbar in C&D handicaps this month. Last-time-out winners Feature This and Fleetfootsoldier are feared most in that order of preference but Big Dream went close here a fortnight ago and is also likely to be in the mix.

  1. THE BOG BANK (IRE)
  2. FEATURE THIS (IRE)
