Running well when coming to grief over 2m4f at Leopardstown (heavy) in March and ran well to finish third over 2m3f at Naas (soft-to-heavy) a week later. Won a bumper on good ground in the past and likely to run well again today.

Forecasts

Senewalk (5/2), Naturally Blond (11/4), Bosco Di Alco (7/2), Novano (5/1), Silver Turtle (8/1), Ned's Indian (25/1), Oakly (25/1), Luso Benny (33/1), Keep It Simple (33/1), Unrequited (50/1)

Verdict

SENEWALK has proven to be a disappointment since joining this yard but can take this for a leading stable in good form at present (9/23). The selection finished fourth last time out and can get off the mark at the chief expense of Bosco Di Alco who is bidding for a second career success having won a bumper just over a year ago. Of the remainder Silver Turtle represents a yard in great form at present and can claim third on his return from over 12 months off the track.
