Verdict

It could be a 1-2 for the Irish with PITWOOD ROAD and Road To Mallow both appealing candidates. The latter is a likely type on paper and it'll be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting but Pitwood Road is given another chance to build on the abundant promise of her Rules debut second at Tipperary. Visual Impact is third choice ahead of stablemate Golden Point.

  1. PITWOOD ROAD
  2. ROAD TO MALLOW (IRE)
  3. VISUAL IMPACT (IRE)
