Verdict

In a race where the betting will provide more clues the suggestion is Donald McCain Irish point recruit ONE MORE STROKE. Nicky Richards does well in bumpers so his newcomer Yakaleo is a possible threat, while Getagin looked set for second until a late departure on his Irish point debut.

  1. ONE MORE STROKE (IRE)
  2. YAKALEO (FR)
  3. GETAGIN (IRE)
