Verdict

DOCTOR GLIDE has achieved enough when placed twice this season to think a race like this could come his way. Napper Tandy will be a danger if primed after his lay-off. Giant Haystacks also showed enough when pitched into a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse on debut to think he could make an impact with his sights lowered.

  1. DOCTOR GLIDE (FR)
  2. NAPPER TANDY
  3. GIANT HAYSTACKS (IRE)
