Verdict

ADAPT TO DAN has been threatening to shed his maiden tag this season and may belatedly get off the mark here. It's All A Joke is respected as a recent winner, while Valquinto has been competitive on all 4 handicap starts and could have a say. The selection's stablemate Agent Zero would also enter the reckoning if getting a run.

  1. ADAPT TO DAN (IRE)
  2. IT'S ALL A JOKE (IRE)
  3. VALQUINTO (IRE)
