Verdict
A case can be made for a few of these but STAYSOUND SUSIE took a big step back in the right direction when fourth at Cork recently and can now capitalise on a lenient mark. Unique Journey and Gerrit's Gem fought out a good finish over C&D last time and should be right in the mix again. Sarahmae completes the shortlist.
