Verdict

ICARE DESBOIS was in the process of showing improved form and had the race at his mercy when unseating at the last at Killarney last time and, back in novice company, he's expected to make amends. Napper Tandy is the likeliest to capitalise if the selection underperforms and Wandering Rocks could have more to offer.
