Verdict

This is wide open but Richard Fahey's GARFIELD SHADOW signalled he's ready to go in again when a fine third at Leopardstown last time so edges the vote. Never So Brave promises to be suited by this drop back to 6f and could emerge as the main danger, although handily-weighted duo Rohaan and Baradar can also have a say. Top-weight Commanche Falls completes the shortlist.

  1. GARFIELD SHADOW (IRE)
  2. NEVER SO BRAVE (IRE)
  3. ROHAAN (IRE)
