Verdict

The Gordon Elliott-trained MORATORIUM should prove a little too strong for a weak looking field here, building on his win in a Down Royal bumper in May. The J P McManus-owned Los Alamos can prove to be the biggest danger while the Barry Murphy-trained Kilchreest Moon can improve on his first two hurdle starts last month and finishing in the frame once again.
