Verdict

Henry De Bromhead won this race with Sub Lieutenant a year ago and in the classy BALKO DES FLOS he has the standout competitor this time around and hopefully the former Ryanair winner can make amends for a winless 2018/19 season here. Progressive sort Tout Est Permis may develop into a legitimate Grade One performer this season and he is respected and preferred to Alpha Des Obeaux in what could prove a Gigginstown benefit.
  1. Balko Des Flos
  2. Tout Est Permis
  3. Alpha Des Obeaux
