Verdict

The in form Joseph O'Brien yard can continue to govern the juvenile division by taking this contest with the potentially exciting KONITHO who will look to add to his win over C&D two weeks ago. Stablemate Band Of Outlaws can emerge as the biggest danger following on from his win in a Limerick maiden hurdle on St Stephens day, while Coko Beach is on a recovery mission following a heavy defeat in a Grade 2 contest over Christmas for a yard who boast a 41% win and place strike rate in early February at this venue in the last three seasons.
  1. Konitho
  2. Band of Outlaws
  3. Coko Beach
