Verdict

DIAMOND DEALER failed to settle when tackling a marathon trip at Kelso in December and is fancied to get back on track returned to a suitable distance. This does look competitive, though, with Pierrot Jaguen and Cahier's Den heading the dangers.

  1. DIAMOND DEALER (IRE)
  2. PIERROT JAGUEN (FR)
  3. CAHIER'S DEN (IRE)
