Dunbrody Beginners Chase

Cian Collins’ Impero showed his quality on his fencing debut, travelling powerfully before tiring in the closing stages, and back at two miles, where he is most effective, he tops our ratings by a comfortable margin and looks the likeliest winner. Nadia’s Boy brings genuine promise over fences, with wins on the point circuit among his recent form, though today’s trip may prove shorter than his ideal in time, while Soir De Garde holds strong claims if he can recapture his earlier level, and Wendrock, fitted with first-time cheekpieces, could outrun his recent poor results. Impero is our selection.
