Verdict

Roi Des Francs is the best of these over a fence but his recent efforts have been something of a concern. Most recently he was very disappointing over this sort of trip at Fairyhouse last month on testing ground. Given the likely price, he is opposed in this. Dedigout hasn't jumped a fence in public for the best part of four years but this is much less demanding than some of the Graded handicaps he's been contesting over timber and he could be a major player today. Topper Thornton ran a sound race at this track in August over three-miles though has been disappointing since. SIZING COAL has his sights lowered a bit for this and having won over three-miles on heavy at Sligo in September, he may be the answer.
  1. Sizing Coal
  2. Dedigout
  3. Roi Des Francs
