Verdict

BALLYBOLLEY is without doubt better than these rivals, and looks certain to pay a return visit for the final of this Challenger Series in due course. Whilst some concerns persist about this deep ground, this trip is without doubt his optimum, and the handicapper has been very fair easing him slightly to a mark of 135. Despite top weight, he's taken to get the better of the hat-trick seeking Uttoxeter regular Special Wells. 1. Ballybolley 2. Special Wells 3. Eastview Boy
