Lovejoy (5/2), Polar Bear (10/3), Escaping Thejungle (10/3), Sam's Xpress (7/2), Thunderbear (8/1), Charming Lady (16/1)

Verdict

SAM'S XPRESS arrives firmly on the up so is strongly fancied to complete a quick hat-trick at the chief expense of C&D winner Escaping Thejungle. Charming Lady didn't enjoy the rub of the green at Dundalk when last seen and appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
