Nessun Dorma (2/5), Le Richebourg (13/8), Treasure Chest (5/2), Blue Eyed Lucy (10/1), Possible Future (14/1), Spirit Of The Rain (20/1), Fifty Shades (25/1), Muroor (25/1), Ihavent A Clue (33/1), Fraser (100/1), Dublin Road (100/1)
Not hard to whittle this down to just a handful, with the highly progressive LE RICHEBOURG heading the shortlist over the improving Nessun Dorma, who is going the right way and can make this a good test. Treasure Chest is a handy second-string for the Joseph O'Brien string to call upon but his profile is less impressive than that of the selection and it would be no surprise to see him having to settle for being the best of the rest.
