Verdict

A difficult closing race with a slight preference going to THE PRIESTS LEAP who is one of the few in the line-up with recent run under his belt. His finished third at Navan on that occasion and while giving weight away all round may be good enough to land this. I A Connect is an interesting debutante given his National Hunt breeding. Any strong market moves would be a good indication of his chances. Five Bar Brian has been off the track since 2017 but connections look to have found him a nice race to see a racecourse once again. He is respected given his connections.
  1. The Priests Leap
  2. I A Connect
  3. Five Bar Brian
