A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual in these types of events the market will be all important but the principals look to be Prince of Slane, Black Collar and Izzykeen and the vote goes to Black Collar. The selection is from a yard that can ready a newcomer and this gelding by Bob's Return has shown plenty of promise in the point field and he is taken to win this. Prince Of Slane rates the main danger he was a fair third behind Brooklyn Brownie last time and he has plenty of experience on his side so he will not be far away. Izzykeen is another that could go well he is a gelding by Keen and is related to flat winners and he will not have to be out the top draw to win this on his debut. Of the remainder Mr Albert is another that takes the eye on breeding and he is from a shrewd yard so he is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to the point to point winner Black Collar.
