Verdict

SECRET ROCK was value for a bit extra over the result when winning at this venue last month having had to pick his way through early in the straight, so he looks capable of defying a 5 lb rise, especially with the longer trip expected to suit. Circus Act and Ellaat arrive on the back of good runs over hurdles and head the opposition.

  1. SECRET ROCK (IRE)
  2. CIRCUS ACT (IRE)
  3. ELLAAT
