Verdict

Ronan McNally rarely misses when the money is down and his ALL CLASS can continue her rich vein of form and complete the hat-trick back over the larger obstacles. Call The Tune ran his best race yet when a close third at Naas 3 weeks ago so he's expected to be in the mix upped even further in distance, along with old rival Handsworth, and Dubai Devils.
