Verdict

BENJIS BENEFIT was a rare one who failed to deliver when the money was down twice for Emmet Mullins but he's joined another shrewd yard and is worth another chance. Forever Frankie produced a big career best at Tramore a fortnight ago and is a threat, along with Breagagh.

  1. BENJIS BENEFIT (IRE)
  2. FOREVER FRANKIE (IRE)
  3. BREAGAGH (IRE)
