Verdict

ASHDALE BOB hasn't managed to get his head in front for almost 3 years, but he's shaped as if as good as ever this season, so Jessica Harrington's 9-y-o gets the nod back down in trip/grade. Cash Back came out on top in what was an attritional contest at Clonmel a few months ago and he looks like the most obvious danger on return, with Dee Capo seemingly best of the remainder.

  1. ASHDALE BOB (IRE)
  2. CASH BACK (FR)
  3. DEE CAPO (FR)
