Moulin A Vent (4/9), Jaime Sommers (11/4), Runyon Rattler (6/1), Masterson (9/1), High Nellie (12/1)

Verdict

Jaime Sommers was going well enough when falling earlier in the week at Galway and could easily bounce back but it is always tough to quantify how much that sort of mishap has taken out of a horse, especially with the quick turnaround. Noel Meade's team are in good form and it might prove worth backing MOULIN A VENT for a winning return. She proved below graded company late last season but is given the nod for this suitable return to the track. Masterson and Runyon Rattler are next best.
