Verdict

MR BERCOW attracted support prior to his improved third in a course handicap last time and, if he can take another step forward, he should have enough to get off the mark. Get Phar is also on the up, so he's regarded as the main threat ahead of Esthers Marvel.

  1. MR BERCOW (IRE)
  2. GET PHAR (IRE)
  3. ESTHERS MARVEL (IRE)
