Pinkerton (4/6), Summer Melody (3/1), Longhouse Poet (5/1), Bois De Clamart (11/1), Elusive Guy (25/1)

Verdict

The improving PINKERTON can give Noel Meade a third straight win in this contest. He's held his own in strong handicaps this term and has plenty going for him up in trip. Bois de Clamart needs a revival but has good claims if bouncing back. Thyestes-winner Longhouse Poet made a tame return at Punchestown but clearly has the class to be a big factor if stripping fitter from that.

  1. PINKERTON (IRE)
  2. BOIS DE CLAMART (FR)
  3. LONGHOUSE POET (IRE)
