Verdict

VEE DANCER is well weighted on the level given his hurdles form and now he gets the increased emphasis on stamina that he's been crying out for, he has a lot in his favour. Building Bridges also figures on a handy mark, with Curious Bride another to take seriously.

  1. VEE DANCER (IRE)
  2. BUILDING BRIDGES
  3. CURIOUS BRIDE (IRE)
