Verdict

STUZZIKINI has to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Down Royal a month ago but he couldn't be in better hands and he sets the clear standard if he is back on his game. Port Nelson and Chequer Square can fight it out for minor honours.

  1. STUZZIKINI (IRE)
  2. PORT NELSON (IRE)
  3. CHEQUER SQUARE (IRE)
