Verdict

CLUB WEXFORD's effort last time was very pleasing on the eye and he may be capable of backing that up carrying 6lb more. Split The Atom is still a maiden on turf but a reproduction of his effort at Navan last time may be enough to see him go close here. Texas Rock may have needed his comeback run last time and is capable of better.
