Verdict

LUCKY MAX is clearly most progressive having won with plenty in hand over C&D 3 weeks ago and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick. Mahlers Dollar won his maiden in decisive fashion at Clonmel last month and his opening mark looks a fair one, while the unexposed An Epic Song remains with potential now handicapping.

  1. LUCKY MAX (GER)
  2. MAHLERS DOLLAR (IRE)
  3. AN EPIC SONG (FR)
