Verdict

SAFFREDI shaped much better than the bare result on handicap debut at Leopardstown last week, keeping on when badly hampered over 1f out, and looks to have a bigger effort in the locker. He gets the vote over Hijo de La Luna and Navorrosse.

  1. SAFFREDI
  2. HIJO DE LA LUNA (GER)
  3. NAVORROSSE (IRE)
