Walks The Talk (5/4), Tamarind Bay (9/4), Scarlet Jet (3/1), Country Code (10/1), Kelvin Forlonge (12/1), Humble Jumble (18/1), Ellistrin Bay (100/1), Blue Indigo (125/1)

Verdict

SCARLET JET ended last term firmly on the up over hurdles and is taken to add to his commanding Perth victory in the spring on his seasonal return. Irish challenger Walks The Talk rates a big danger though on the back of her own impressive Roscommon success, while hurdling newcomer Country Code also needs considering for a yard which has taken the past two runnings of this.
