Verdict

Ifyoucatchmenow ran down her rivals late in the day in a very similar slog at Punchestown last time and it would not be a surprise to see her follow up. Cheb De Kerviniou, who was in close proximity that day, is a 10yo but has had just four starts for Gordon Elliott since arriving from France and there may be more improvement to come from him. Plenty of the others have not proved their stamina and an interesting option among that group is ITS ALL GUESSWORK, also trained by Elliott, who showed significant promise on occasions last season before suffering an injury in the Kim Muir. Poormans Hill (3-3 at Downpatrick) won this race in 2018 and Amaulino did so last year.
