Willie Mullins holds a very strong hand with CLASSIC GETAWAY and O'Moore Park. The latter was an excellent third in the Golden Miller off this mark last month but narrow preference is for Classic Getaway, who looks on a nice mark back in a handicap having won a Grade 2 at Gowran in February. Riskintheground thrives at this time of year and completes the shortlist after his stylish win at Ayr on Friday.
