Mano Chicago (11/4), Wild Sapphire (7/2), Take Me (7/2), Game Point (5/1), Catherine Magennis (8/1), Cracking Cloud (11/1), Sron Na Caise (11/1), Eagle's Quest (25/1), Western Bandit (28/1), Eternal Echo (33/1), Tears I Nevercried (50/1), Musical Master (50/1), Purple Moon (80/1), An Cailleach (80/1), Massarat (125/1), Tommy Go Maith (250/1), Zammawar (300/1)

Verdict

WILD SAPPHIRE has made the frame on 4 of his 5 outings to date and can build on his recent Dundalk effort to finally get off the mark. Mano Chicago showed fairly useful form at 2 yrs and would prove the biggest threat if retaining all ability after 18 months off.

  1. WILD SAPPHIRE (IRE)
  2. MANO CHICAGO (IRE)
  3. TAKE ME (IRE)
