Verdict

Unexposed 3-y-o PRIORSTOWN is in good hands, and he gets the vote ahead of Nicky Larson and Grann's Boy, in what looks an ultra-competitive handicap. Glittering Gem, Alfalfa, Gallo Dell Cielo and Flagstone Lady also appeal.

  1. PRIORSTOWN (IRE)
  2. NICKY LARSON (FR)
  3. GRANN'S BOY (IRE)
