Verdict

POURQUOI POI has a decent record when partnered by Jack Kennedy and is taken to give the weight away and land a second career success. La Tene is a possible danger back hurdling with the John Patrick Ryan stable in form. Whiskey Serenade and Granlahan are others with the form to figure, while Yolanda's Star has the potential for better in handicaps.
