Verdict

Having been awarded a generous mark, FAMOUS BRIDGE fluffed his lines when unseating his rider over C&D a month ago but compensation may well await. Kaizer won over further on the same card and he has to be feared, while WIlde About Oscar adds a touch of class to the race.

  1. FAMOUS BRIDGE (IRE)
  2. KAIZER
