Verdict

Preference is for PRENDS GARDE A TOI, who returned to form when making the frame at Punchestown last month and has more to offer as a staying chaser. Waterford Whispers could improve again on just his third handicap start in this sphere, with Jeriko du Reponet and Kim Roque completing the shortlist.

  1. PRENDS GARDE A TOI (FR)
  2. WATERFORD WHISPERS (IRE)
  3. JERIKO DU REPONET (FR)
