Verdict

Irish-raider MULLINS CROSS is on a long losing run but rates the pick of these weights so gets the vote in a contest where lots arrive with question marks against them. Cosheston could emerge as the chief threat despite having a long absence to overcome, with Rolypolymoly not ruled out for his new yard.

  1. MULLINS CROSS (IRE)
  2. COSHESTON
  3. ROLYPOLYMOLY
