Verdict

A winning pointer, IRISH BLAZE ran well on form when runner-up in an eventful novice at Leopardstown a week ago, rallying to only just be denied in the end, so he is taken to build on that effort and go one better this time around. Clifton Warrior and All Those Years are both interesting contenders though, as they make their chase debuts.

  1. IRISH BLAZE (IRE)
  2. CLIFTON WARRIOR
  3. ALL THOSE YEARS
