Verdict

TOUNSIVATOR sets the standard judged on his excellent second in a Galway handicap 3 weeks ago, so he has to be considered the one to beat, especially with the timefigure supporting his performance. Ninth Titan, a stablemate of the selection, is going the right way as a hurdler and rates the main threat ahead of Al Gasparo, who appeals as the type to bounce back quickly.

  1. TOUNSIVATOR (FR)
  2. NINTH TITAN (IRE)
  3. AL GASPARO (FR)
