Verdict

This is competitive for the grade but DUE COURSE has joined a shrewd stable and has won a point since last seen under Rules, so he's worth chancing to get the better of last-time-out winners Slieve Bearnagh and Flashthelights. Several others can have a case made for them.

  1. DUE COURSE (IRE)
  2. SLIEVE BEARNAGH (IRE)
  3. FLASHTHELIGHTS (IRE)
