Verdict

Lots with chances. NO MORE PORTER shaped well on his belated return when runner-up at the Curragh and can go one better now to end his losing run. Brave Troop heads the list of dangers on the back of his Ballinrobe success, with Independent Expert, Simply Sideways and Malbay Madness all worthy of respect too.

  1. NO MORE PORTER (IRE)
  2. BRAVE TROOP (IRE)
  3. INDEPENDENT EXPERT (IRE)
