Verdict

The one that stands out is SHADOW RIDER, who showed plenty of ability in finishing behind a pair with more experience on his hurdling debut last month and seems sure to improve. Mount Melleray and Bal de Rio are considered the main threats.

  1. SHADOW RIDER (FR)
  2. MOUNT MELLERAY (IRE)
  3. BAL DE RIO (FR)
