Verdict

This looks a strong race for the grade with KILBRIN ROCCO fancied to build on his much-improved display over 19f here a fortnight ago and go in again. Son of Hypnos and Politicise arrive on the back of wins over fences and are just a couple of potential threats.

  1. KILBRIN ROCCO (IRE)
  2. SON OF HYPNOS (IRE)
  3. POLITICISE (IRE)
