oddschecker Verdict
A dual C&D winner around this time last year, ALTIMARA could record her third win back here. Ross O'Sullivan's mare has slipped back down the weights this season and following two promising runs in recent weeks, the five-year-old shouldn't be far away. Mr Perth went into plenty of notebooks following a luckless passage at the Galway Festival last time. Granted a clear run, he should be involved at the death, while Ballymagreehan may also feature if he can get a prominent position from his wide draw.
Prediction: 1st Altimara, 2nd Mr Perth, 3rd Ballymagreehan
