A desperately weak finale, and if this is the getting out stakes then difficult times lie ahead. We'll seek a potentially well-handicapped horse in the hope (rather than necessarily the expectation) of a return to form. The Irish raider Viking Hoard is interesting in this respect on the basis of his win at Killarney (for Charles Byrnes) in the summer of 2018, and he should be followed if the market speaks authoritatively with the capable 5lb claimer Danny McMenamin aboard. However, the course winner (over fences) SAMTU gets the tentative nod. Third to Diggin' Deep in this contest 12 months ago, he's now rated 10lb lower for the Cumbrian-based handler Barry Murtagh.
