Verdict

Gordon Elliott's HUNTING BROOK comes here on the back of a good first effort over fences at Kilbeggan and can go one better returned to this sphere. Hypersonic Missile is weighted to have a big say and heads the list of dangers, although Dr Val, Squire Ohara and The Rebel County all need factoring into this competitive handicap too.

  1. HUNTING BROOK (IRE)
  2. HYPERSONIC MISSILE (IRE)
  3. DR VAL (IRE)
