Verdict

GREEK FLYER has been shaping up very well despite failing to add to her tally in 2024, really strong at the finish over C&D a week ago so she might be the answer. Grand City Hall and Harry's Hill look to be the chief threats.

  1. GREEK FLOWER (IRE)
  2. GRAND CITY HALL (IRE)
  3. HARRY'S HILL
