Forecasts

Cuthbert Dibble (11/2), Le Milos (6/1), Gaoth Chuil (7/1), Icare Allen (7/1), Cleatus Poolaw (15/2), Gabbys Cross (9/1), Springwell Bay (14/1), Kyntara (16/1), Gowel Road (16/1), Popova (16/1), Farouk D'Alene (16/1), Chantry House (20/1), Anna Bunina (22/1), Alpesh Amin (22/1), Monmiral (25/1), Emitom (25/1), Noble Birth (28/1), Hyland (33/1), Judicial Law (33/1), Hector Javilex (40/1), Mill Green (40/1), Bold Endeavour (50/1), Prairie Dancer (50/1), Flight Deck (80/1)

Verdict

There is more to come from CLEATUS POOLAW, who has a profile not too dissimilar to that of Delta Work, successful as a novice in this for connections back in 2018, and with this stiffer test sure to suit he's taken to come out on top. The Leopardstown handicap Gaoth Chuil won at Christmas often throws up the winner of this and she's a big player. Cuthbert Dibble and 2021 Golden Miller-winner Chantry House are a couple of the other leading contenders.
