Kemboy (5/4), Some Neck (13/8), Moulin A Vent (6/1), Tombstone (7/1), Youcantcallherthat (7/1), Tycoon Prince (8/1), Twiss's Hill (33/1)

Verdict

The game and gutsy Youcantcallherthat could have Twiss's Hill for company as the pair possibly cut out the early running here. The likable and promising KEMBOY can overcome his first fence fall in the Irish national to land this Grade 3 contest. Some Neck and Moulin A Vent can fill the places.
  1. Kemboy
  2. Some Neck
  3. Moulin A Vent
