Arctic Gale (11/8), Field A Thistles (13/8), Littlefoot (4/1), Confidential Gosip (6/1), Nitty Gritty (10/1), A Tipp For Gold (14/1), Mont Beuvray (28/1), True Light (66/1)

Verdict

ARCTIC GALE arrives on the up so gets a confident vote to open his account in this sphere and add to his earlier bumper victory. Both Field A Thistles and Confidential Gosip have the form to play a part too in this fairly useful maiden and can chase home Emmet Mullins' improver in that order.

  1. ARCTIC GALE (IRE)
  2. FIELD A THISTLES (IRE)
  3. CONFIDENTIAL GOSIP (IRE)
