Verdict

PIERRE LAPIN has a pretty solid record here this winter and might be ready to strike again for Ado McGuinness. Last-time-out C&D 1-2 Garrick Painter and Obama Army should be in the thick of things again. Last year's winner Higher Kingdom would also enter the reckoning if getting a run.

  1. PIERRE LAPIN (IRE)
  2. GARRICK PAINTER (IRE)
  3. OBAMA ARMY
