Minella Youngy (11/4), Frontline Worker (11/4), Lieutenant Highway (10/3), The Abbey (9/2), Churchtown Ruby (8/1), Florey Spud (22/1)

Verdict

FRONTLINE WORKER took a big step forward when opening her account at Punchestown and with more improvement on the cards she can follow up at the chief expense of Gordon Elliott's duo Lieutenant Highway and The Abbey who can chase home Henry de Bromhead's progressive mare in that order.

  1. FRONTLINE WORKER (IRE)
  2. LIEUTENANT HIGHWAY (IRE)
  3. THE ABBEY (IRE)
