Wartime Hero (5/4), Empire State (13/8), Recon Mission (7/2), Invincible Karma (7/2), Isle Of Innisfree (4/1), Staycation (6/1), National Guard (6/1), Mr Coldstone (8/1)
Another contest where Aidan O'Brien appears to be holding the aces. EMPIRE STATE made a decent start at Dundalk recently and, with improvement likely, he could prove up to this task. Fellow Scat Daddy colt, and newcomer, Isle Of Innisfree is not to be dismissed. Wartime Hero is another first-timer deemed worthy of note while Invincible Karma falls into the same category.
