Verdict

FOX LE BEL is arguably the only one who arrives on the back of a reasonable effort in a race that looks incredibly weak considering the field size, so he's preferred to Saga Aravis, who had been in good order prior to shaping as if amiss at Punchestown last time. Eileens Boy also warrants consideration.

  1. FOX LE BEL (FR)
  2. SAGA ARAVIS (FR)
  3. EILEENS BOY (IRE)
