Verdict

Martin Brassil's low-mileage IL SILENZIO captured this prize last year and teed himself up well for a repeat with an encouraging fourth in a big field at Punchestown on his return in June so edges the vote from Kilkee Bay who has taken well to fences and rates a big danger. Both One Way Traffic and Difficult Decision can both play a prominent role too.

  1. IL SILENZIO
  2. KILKEE BAY (IRE)
  3. ONE WAY TRAFFIC (IRE)
