Verdict

The unexposed CENOTAPH is well drawn in stall 15 for this contest and can claim this competitive 6f handicap on his seasonal debut. The selection finished third in a competitive race over 7f at The Curragh in June 2015 and got off the mark at the fifth time of asking on his sole start of 2016. Of his rivals Club Wexford ran well at Leopardstown earlier this week when contesting a 7f event and can claim third while one of the likely front-runner's Tribal Path who is better known for his exploits over 7f can claim third in this competitive event.
