Verdict

The vote goes to THREE DONS, who was well below his best in a handful of appearances on the Flat in 2025 but made a very positive start in this sphere when runner-up in a C&D novice. Olly Murphy saddled the winner of this 12 months ago and fields two strong candidates this time round in Seaview Rock and Mister Ursus. The former bumped into a decent one on his first run over hurdles (also over this C&D) and he is feared most. Sutherland is also in with a shout.

  1. THREE DONS (IRE)
  2. SEAVIEW ROCK
  3. MISTER URSUS (IRE)
