Verdict

The lack of a recognised pace-maker here could make for a muddling contest in the early stages. There could be some each-way value on offer here with Secret Approach who was fourth of 14 on soft to heavy ground last month. The race could end up being a duel between the Ruby Walsh ridden Floramar and UP FOR DISCUSSION beaten favourite last time out in the McManus colours.
