Verdict

An ultra-competitive finale with the vote in favour of RALPHY BOY TWO. A steadily progressive 3-y-o handicapper on balance, it's feasible to think 11f stretched his stamina at Hamilton latest and he appeals as being on a handy mark. Donnelly's Rainbow, My Ukulele and Merricourt head up the dangers, in that order, though Cassy O is now highly respected after his career-best win here on Thursday.

  1. RALPHY BOY TWO (IRE)
  2. DONNELLY'S RAINBOW (IRE)
  3. MY UKULELE (IRE)
