Sacrificial has been allocated a mark of 90 after going close at the Curragh behind Portage. But the latter is trained by Mick Halford and that form should give him a good line on the chances of WYCHWOOD WARRIOR. The latter made a promising start when fourth at Listowel last month and gets the vote. Tagg's Island and Lord Carleton have both shown enough to suggest they can figure but Cradle Mountain and Algonquin were well beaten on their respective debuts. Cartographic and Bob's The Business are newcomers to note.
