Verdict

A valuable contest. KING CUAN looked highly promising when effortlessly drawing clear of his rivals in a Cork auction event last week and could take a bit of stopping assuming he can cope with 2 outings in fairly quick succession. The Clive Cox-trained British raider James's Delight is another who is likely capable of better after only 2 starts and is second choice ahead of Jakajaro and Nemonte.

  1. KING CUAN
  2. JAMES'S DELIGHT (IRE)
  3. JAKAJARO (IRE)
