Verdict

It's hard to get away from Gordon Elliott's exciting prospect BALLYADAM, who made a seamless transition to hurdling last month and bids to follow in high-class stablemate Envoi Allen's footsteps here. Cask Mate is suddenly thriving and could be the one to give the selection most to think about, ahead of The Very Man.

  1. BALLYADAM (IRE)
  2. CASK MATE (IRE)
