Verdict

Though he's not one to set your watch by, LEABALAND failed by a whisker over C&D on his latest start in December and he is appealing on the back of that solid effort. Last-time-out winners Prince of Abington and Cousin Shay may emerge as the main dangers.

  1. LEABALAND (IRE)
  2. PRINCE OF ABINGTON (IRE)
  3. COUSIN SHAY
