Whats The Plot (9/4), High Expectations (7/2), Usa (4/1), Dara Tango (4/1), High Kicker (9/2), Jack Baur (9/2), Ringo Kid (10/1), Greanta (10/1), Freedom Chimes (10/1), Grandma Dotty (14/1), Repare Mon (16/1), Mallory Heights (16/1), Isabella Vite (25/1), Princess Harriet (25/1), Miller And Cook (25/1), Solent Lad (40/1), Masterstonemason (50/1)

Verdict

Greanta and Repare Mon could dispute the lead in the early stages of this competitive claimer. DARA TANGO, superb effort be 3¾L second of 18 over 1m5f at Leopardstown in June, can go close, given the geldings solid figures on the going and distance. Whats The Plot and Greanta can fill the places.
