Verdict

Competitive stuff but TEMPTATIONINMILAN still leaves the impression he has a race or two in him despite meeting with defeat when favourite the last twice and he's definitely worth another chance. Sargent Lightfoot and Fields of Dreams are just a couple of the other likely contenders.

  1. TEMPTATIONINMILAN (IRE)
  2. SARGENT LIGHTFOOT (IRE)
  3. FIELDS OF DREAMS
