An interesting race with several holding claims including GLENTRUAN. He continued his theme of race-by-race progress over hurdles when successful in a Cork maiden over this trip in March and he may yet do better again now his sights are set on handicaps. Floating Rock, Deniliquin and 2019 winner Castletown head up the dangers, in that order.
