Verdict

A big field but it's hard to ignore the claims of THE GOSSIPER given he's been allotted a very low mark when you consider his bumper ability. Fenomeno is another to consider at the foot of the weights, with Boola Boola completing the shortlist.

  1. THE GOSSIPER (IRE)
  2. FENOMENO (IRE)
  3. BOOLA BOOLA (IRE)
