Verdict

The Henry De Bromhead-trained CLASSIC THEATER went well on chasing debut at Clonmel last month when finishing fourth of 14 before winning a Limerick beginners contest earlier this month and can fight off the attentions of Ask Susan who was beaten a nose in her first novice chase at Wexford two weeks ago and potential improver Consharon Boy. Any market moves for Thirsty Work or Imperial Way should be noted.
