Verdict

MR VANGO proved better than ever last season, winning all 3 starts, and picked up where he left off when just denied in the Becher at Aintree in December. He is taken to add to his tally, though Fortunate Man got back on the up when making a successful return and is respected, with Pic Roc also in the mix.

  1. MR VANGO (IRE)
  2. FORTUNATE MAN (IRE)
  3. PIC ROC (IRE)
