Hunters Yarn (5/6), Life In The Park (9/4), Sam's Choice (5/1), Freedom To Dream (12/1), Johngus (18/1), Daring Rocco (50/1), Brulure Noire (300/1), Emperor Dani (300/1), Inspiteofourselves (300/1)
A very interesting race of its type. HUNTERS YARN has switched to Willie Mullins since his easy Thurles bumper success in March and is the one to beat, but Life In The Park was nicely clear of a subsequent bumper winner when coming down at the last in his sole point and would rate a threat if the betting speaks for him. Sam's Choice is best of the rest.
