Verdict

Last week's C&D 1-2 CAVALIER APPROACH and Protest Rally (dead-heated for second) can come to the fore again, with Ed Bethell's 4-y-o taken to confirm the form over his rival and follow up with Rossa Ryan in the plate once more. Lettuce Leaf, the only 3-y-o in the field, remains unexposed now taking on older rivals and could produce a bigger performance.

  1. CAVALIER APPROACH (IRE)
  2. PROTEST RALLY (IRE)
  3. LETTUCE LEAF
