We said20th of 21, beaten 28¼ at 13/2
PERRY MASON 11/1
PERRY MASON at 11/1, Maurice Andrew Ahern and Leigh Roche, is the one I want to be with. He is a 3 times-winner over this course, should be suited by the ground, placed once from 2 on it and gets a trip he has won over.
3 wins and a place from 6 on heavy and a three-time winner at the Curragh, and the ground has come right for him.
The dangers are TITANIUM at 70/1 (a course winner) and VICTORY TIP at 20/1 (a course winner).
Each-way is the way in at 11/1, 5 places at 1/5.
