Verdict

Dorans River has only run twice since September and ran very well at Galway so has to be respected. Batchelors Walk was racing between the flags before reverting to hurdles and scoring at Roscommon and he's since run well on the Flat. MAJOR DESTINATION ran a fine race behind Lizzies Champ at Galway where he was staying on strongly. He's 10lb lower than his chasing mark and has the scope to do better so gets the vote. Na Trachtalai Abu was behind in that latter event and is better over fences, a remark that also applies to Round Tower, but the once useful Waaheb showed he still has something left with an excellent run on the Flat at Galway.
