Verdict
Dermot Weld saddled the winner of this in 2013 and FOOTBRIDGE (NAP) looks the one to beat this time. He couldn't quite get to Queen Blossom on his debut at Cork in September but the winner has already landed a Group 3 this term so the form has a very solid look about it. Freeman was also second on his debut at Leopardstown earlier this month behind the highly-regarded Claudio Monteverdi and will know more today. Ger Lyons runs three with the Elusive Pimpernel newcomer Elusive Heights likely to prove the pick. Admodum is another debutant to note while Suvenna appears the best of the four fillies in the line-up.
