Verdict

ICARE DESBOIS got the job done at the fifth attempt in this sphere when landing a big-field Naas maiden last month and, with the likelihood of better to come from this 6-y-o now handicapping, he is taken to follow up. So Scottish has slipped to an attractive mark and will be a big threat if he puts his best foot forward, while the hat-trick seeking Cheerful Chap and Zeeband are others to consider.

  1. ICARE DESBOIS (FR)
  2. SO SCOTTISH (FR)
  3. CHEERFUL CHAP (IRE)
