Verdict

WIZARD SLIABH showed good speed to score at Market Rasen last month and, if her jumping has improved a notch she could be doing her best work at the finish. Alan King's Tara View has done little wrong so far and should be thereabouts again if handling this new trip. Brillare Momento didn't match expectations at Cheltenham on her latest outing but should do better over hurdles. Ben Pauling's Eloped scuppered his chance very early last week and should be given a second chance. 1. Wizard's Sliabh 2. Tara View 3. Eloped
