Boxing Great (Ire)

Age: 6
Weight: 11st 11lbs
Or: 75

Has contested some very competitive races this season and proved at least as good as ever when getting off the mark for the year at Leopardstown 3 weeks ago, worthy of some additional credit having come from a long way back. Can make another bold bid with a 1 lb nudge.

Timeform Verdict

There was little between CATALANI and Boxing Great at Leopardstown earlier this month with the former taken to edge it this time. Friary Road and Day Trader are others to consider in what looks a competitive finale.

Betting Forecast

7/2 Boxing Great (Ire), 15/2 Catalani (Ire), 10/1 Sequoiaspirit (Ire), 10/1 Miss Gitana (Ire), 50/1 Baltic Bird, 15/2 Day Trader (Fr), 33/1 Jerandme (Ire), 13/2 Cooley's Mist (Ire), 17/2 Friary Road (Ire), 25/1 Kimy (Fr), 16/1 Liberated Light (Ire)
