Verdict

RAPID ESCAPE looked a potentially useful individual when winning at Down Royal earlier this month and he can add a second bumper to his tally under useful amateur rider Lisa O'Neill. Punches Cross is related to a couple of bumper winners and hailing from a leading stable he can chase the selection home while point-to-point winner The Holy One can get the better of Speirling in the race for third.
  1. Rapid Escape
  2. Punches Cross
  3. The Holy One
