Goal Exceeded (3/1), Gleneagle Bay (3/1), L L Koulsty (7/2), Mallavelly (4/1), Smoke Them Out (6/1), Send Harry (8/1), Usuario Amigo (9/1), Brewing (12/1), Dragon Of Malta (40/1)

Verdict

USUARIO AMIGO is on a good mark on his peak form and might be worth chancing under Jack Cleary having shaped better than the result at Naas recently. Goal Exceeded had a quick turnaround as an excuse for a lesser run last time and is second choice ahead of Send Harry, who could bounce back to form with his reappearance behind him.
