Verdict

Cases can be made for most but the most compelling is for DARK SWANSONG. Clive Cox's charge looked unlucky not to finish closer at Lingfield last week, and with Adam Kirby back on board and first-time blinkers replacing the cheekpieces, he's fancied to bring up career victory number 2. Verreaux Eagle's stamina was possibly stretched at Chester 3 weeks ago so he heads up the opposition, with Above It All also expected to be in the mix.

  1. DARK SWANSONG (IRE)
  2. VERREAUX EAGLE (IRE)
  3. ABOVE IT ALL (IRE)
