Sponsors Bresbet have issued price on the upcoming Easter Cup and they have introduced the English Derby champion De Lahdedah as their clear market leader at 6-1.
The Liam Dowling trained star is in action in the red-hot opening heat of Saturday’s first round and will need to be at his best on his return to the track but with four to qualify, it would be something of a shock if he wasn’t in the second-round draw.
Just behind De Lahdedah in the market are Juvenile Derby champion and Derby third Callaway Knegare and English Derby runner-up Boylesports Bob. Callaway Knegare may have suffered defeat in his comeback run last weekend but is just 7-1, while Boylesports Bob flew home to return to winning ways on Saturday and is 8-1 third in.
Defending champion Clonbrien Treaty is returning from a spell on the sidelines with a gracilis injury but is on the 14-1 mark alongside the versatile Jaytee Craze, who established himself as one of the best stayers in the land at the back end of 2024.
Coosane Pickles and Untold Dollar are both hugely talented and will attract support at 16-1, while there are four on the 20-1 mark, Carmac King, Hopes Teddy, Randolph Scotts and Superfast Gorden. The full market can be found below.
