Yielding (cross-country is Good to Yielding) View all races

Formscan By Gary Carson - JUNGLE COVE has run in a few similar events and sets the standard here off his Flat mark of 81. He was last seen in winning form at Laytown last September and was second in this a couple of years ago. Dark Note is a solid performer and looks nicely weighted off his mark of 71. Henry de Bromhead won this last year with Somptueux and Chutzpal looks like another for the shortlist despite having to give all his rivals weight.
