Verdict

The hat-trick seeking, GOUGANE BARRA can defy a 7lb rise here and claim the prize from Joseph O'Brien's exciting prospect The Game Of Life, winner over C&D in December. Course specialist Aussie Valentine is sure to be on the premises once again on return to the track while Koybig can go well at a price.
