Verdict

Lots with chances but Dermot Weld's CAMPARI SODA is fancied to take a big step forward on her handicap debut now her stamina is unlocked more so gets the vote. In-form pair Victor's Choice and Positive Energy can both have a say and chase home the selection in that order. Tipperary-scorer Killeaney Bear completes the shortlist.

  1. CAMPARI SODA (IRE)
  2. VICTOR'S CHOICE (IRE)
  3. POSITIVE ENERGY (IRE)
