Verdict

The vote goes to BIG ISLAND, who has been given a chance by the handicapper, now 5 lb below the mark off which he was third of 16 at Limerick on his latest start in this sphere in April. He has finished runner-up twice over hurdles since, including last time at Kilbeggan, and conditions won't be a problem for this 6-y-o (has won on soft/heavy). Though below par on their latest starts, Oriole and Pale Moonlight could both take a hand in the finish if on-song.

  1. BIG ISLAND (IRE)
  2. ORIOLE
  3. PALE MOONLIGHT (IRE)
