In depth
Verdict
The market should prove invaluable here but TALBOT ROAD, a very easy winner of his only start between the flags at Monksgrange in March, can remain unbeaten. Thomond scrambled home on his introduction at Kilmallock in April but Noel Meade has won this twice in recent years so this one shouldn't be underestimated. Willie Mullins saddles Outlander, pulled up in his first two point-to-points but runner-up at Lisronagh in March and sure to do better while Saffron Wells showed some promise in a Punchestown bumper in April. All Day Long and Indian File are newcomers to note in a tricky finale to unravel.
