Verdict

Successive mistakes did for DONNACHA at Chepstow last time but it was an encouraging effort overall and he can do better over fences. He gets the vote over Risk de Pluie, who showed aptitude for this game on his return here last month.

  1. DONNACHA (IRE)
  2. RISK DE PLUIE (FR)
  3. ROYAL JEWEL (IRE)
