Verdict

The J P McManus-owned CHEAP AND CHEERFUL can continue his improvement here by taking this contest. The Shirocco gelding can make a bold bid here following up on an eye-catching fourth of 16 beaten 2½L in a Limerick maiden hurdle earlier this month. Leading trainer/jockey combination Gordon Elliott and Davy Russell have a live chance with potential improver Holy Motivation and the daughter of Kalanisi can take advantage of any shortcomings from the selection.
