Verdict

Lots of potential on show here, not least from Paul Nicholls' WRAPPEDUPINMAY and he is taken to go in at the first time of asking from fellow chasing newcomer Mt Fugi Park who also rates an interesting prospect. Kintail could emerge as the pick of those with experience over fences and can also have a say in this intriguing contest.

  1. WRAPPEDUPINMAY (IRE)
  2. MT FUGI PARK (IRE)
  3. KINTAIL
