Verdict

ASK TO DANCE and Tom Cody have been making hay in points and as 6-y-os, probably have even more to offer, so they're taken against the field in what strikes as a competitive race for a maiden hunter. Last year's second Matts Commission is also considered and Blazing Tom, who is unbeaten in his last 9 outings between the flags, can't be ruled out.

  1. ASK TO DANCE (IRE)
  2. TOM CODY (IRE)
  3. MATTS COMMISSION (IRE)
