Gary Moore holds quite a strong hand and, while WALK IN THE WILD hasn't been in top form, he's a likely candidate to bounce back after a wind op/in a first-time tongue tie, so he's the tentative choice. West Orchard arrives on the back of a solid showing and is feared along with Valirann Gold.

  1. WALK IN THE WILD (FR)
  2. WEST ORCHARD (IRE)
  3. VALIRANN GOLD (IRE)
