Race Overview
Erratic he may be but when focused IRON BIRD DEVOL (5) is a tough individual and, sporting a revised configuration, looks a serious proposition. There will be resistance though from the ideally-placed IVARUN (3) who has yet to put a foot wrong this term, and ISARIC (2) who has won 2 of his last 4. ILLUMINATOR (4) also benefits from a decent draw and, if fully-fit, will not be far from the action.
Selection:
5 - 3 - 2
