Verdict

Holly Flight has been improving in this sphere and might have made the frame at Listowel last week bar a late unseat. She can't be discounted back in a handicap now. Fergiethelegend is a reliable yardstick and much-respected despite being one of the old boys in the field while Jamesmicheal and Ringrone Castle are also shortlisted. MIC MILANO was running his best race over fences at Sligo a year ago when giving the useful Poormans Hill a race on testing ground before he clattered the final fence and finished second. He'll have to bounce back having disappointed over timber since but might be capable.
  1. Mic Milano
  2. Holly Flight
  3. Ringrone Castle
