Lots with chances but ONE COOL POET comes here on the back of a good recent run on the level at Leopardstown so is fancied to capitalise on an attractive mark returned to this sphere. Handicap-debutant Bukhill looks to have more to offer and heads the list of dangers, with last year's winner Darkened and handily-weighted Neveradullmoment two more who are firmly in the picture.

  1. ONE COOL POET (IRE)
  2. BUKHILL (IRE)
  3. DARKENED (IRE)
