Verdict

ANGEL ON FIRE stepped up on his reappearance run and very much shaped like this step back up in trip would be very much in his favour when fourth at Naas 17 days ago. Interesting from this sort of mark, he shades the vote to come out on top. Atbay, who was one place behind the selection latest, is a threat with blinkers enlisted for the first time. St Cianans Fire and the returning So Messi are others to consider.

  1. ANGEL ON FIRE (IRE)
  2. ATBAY (IRE)
  3. ST CIANANS FIRE (IRE)
