Verdict

Boot Camp is one to note for last year's winning trainer/jockey combination, he ran a credible race at the Punchestown Festival in good company and should be there or thereabouts in this if ready to go. Rakhine State has two promising efforts behind at Ballinrobe and Clonmel, hitting the frame in both, and should be off the mark soon for the in-form Elliott team. The returning Lord In Red and debutante Gran Geste bear some consideration but Derek O'Connor may boost his excellent strike rate (3-5) for Joseph O'Brien by steering US AND THEM home in front. He made a good impression in two runs earlier in the year and can get off the mark on his return to action.
