Verdict

Competitive stuff but solids ground for keeping on the right side of the hat-trick-seeking LINE OUT despite an 8lb rise for his cosy Cork success as this return to 2m4f looks sure to work in his favour. Fellow recent winners St Lawrence Gap and Eiri Na Casca also merit a place high on an shortlist, whilst Willie Mullins' Sharps Choice doesn't look undly over-burdened on his handicap debut. Fellow handicap debutant Young Turk is also of interest in a good race.
