Verdict

PARK RANGER's close-up second at Wexford in October looks the best form on offer here and Christy Roche's gelding won on the Flat at Tipperary in April. He gets the vote ahead of Abarta, ahead of Cuckoo Hill when fourth at Ballinrobe last month. Knockgraffon Lad, Man In Black and Speed Steed have all shown signs of ability but have had plenty of chances now.
