Verdict

Irish Poli last won in 2010 off a mark of 98 and he's still looking a bit high in the weights. City Of Doral is better over fences and a longer trip but FANTASTIC GOLD can take this as he isn't too badly treated despite still being a maiden over timber. He scored at Clonmel on his only start so far over fences in April and has run reasonably well in two better quality handicaps over hurdles subsequently. Two In A Row hasn't had much experience and showed definite signs of progress at Killarney but Muzak has been racing exclusively over fences this year and his overall form leaves him with a bit to find.
