Verdict

The eight-year-old MILL QUEST was winner of two of his 20 hurdle starts for trainer Terence O'Brien and can make a bold bid here on stable debut for leading trainer and jockey combination. Loupgarou is clearly better than his last start at Ballinrobe and Peter Fahy's Racing Stripes along with the Henry De Bromhead-trained Theatre Dreams can all go well at double figure prices.
  1. Mill Quest
  2. Loupgarou
  3. Theatre Dreams
