Verdict

The market should reveal plenty but TORMUND GIANTSBANE landed his only start in points so is taken to make a winning start for the Skeltons now. Fergal O'Brien saddles two interesting contenders in Start Again and Sun Art and they can chase home the selection in that order. Kingsley completes the shortlist.

  1. TORMUND GIANTSBANE (IRE)
  2. START AGAIN (IRE)
  3. SUN ART (FR)
