Verdict

Adrian McGuinness has his string in good nick and his BEAU ARMY is taken to build on a resurgent Dundalk runner-up and go one better off just a 1 lb higher mark. Gavin Cromwell's No Bother Aoife appeals as a likely improver on her handicap debut and heads the list of dangers, with He's Holding Court, Neon Eyes and Believe Believe all in the mix too.

  1. BEAU ARMY (IRE)
  2. NO BOTHER AOIFE (IRE)
  3. HE'S HOLDING COURT (IRE)
