Verdict

The step up to 7f was a plausible excuse for HEAVENLY POWER at the Curragh 11 days ago and quickly back sprinting, he could be the way to go. Last-time-out winners Mickey The Steel and Collective Power (a stablemate of the selection) are feared most.

  1. HEAVENLY POWER (IRE)
  2. MICKEY THE STEEL
  3. COLLECTIVE POWER (IRE)
