Verdict

It could be another 1-2 for Henry de Bromhead but in a different order, with A PLUS TARD, who should be in his prime at 8, taken to turn the tables on last year's winner Minella Indo. The latter has yet to really fire this term but he's always saved his best for this meeting (2 wins and a second) and can provide a bigger threat than Galvin, who pipped the selection at Leopardstown over Christmas.

  1. A PLUS TARD (FR)
  2. MINELLA INDO (IRE)
  3. GALVIN (IRE)
