Verdict

This is wide open so at the likely odds it is worth siding with DROP THE DIP to build on Tuesday's promise here now she reverts to a shorter trip. Imposing Supreme heads the list of dangers on the back of his good C&D third, although Stormie Outlook, Expound, Mount Ruapehu and Ramiro all need factoring into this highly competitive event too.

  1. DROP THE DIP (IRE)
  2. IMPOSING SUPREME (IRE)
  3. STORMIE OUTLOOK (IRE)
