Pinkerton (11/8), Glengouly (5/2), Sam's Choice (7/2), Peaceful Sunday (7/2), John Cannon (5/1), Diamond Union (40/1), I Don't Get It (50/1)

Verdict

GLENGOULY is fancied to follow up his Gowran success with a fair bit of improvement on the cards from Willie Mullins' promising 6-y-o. In-form Pinkerton has the form to play a part while Sam's Choice is another who merits respect in his bid for minor honours.

  1. GLENGOULY (FR)
  2. PINKERTON (IRE)
  3. SAM'S CHOICE (IRE)
