Verdict

Will be interesting to see where Ruby Walsh places Total Recall in the early stages as he was usually ridden handily when with Sandra Hughes. ARKWRISHT can improve on his second of 18 beaten ½L in the Kerry National last time out and has stamina to burn. Phil's Magic, has been solid all summer and can hit the frame here along with Dromnea and Tulsa Jack.
  1. Arkwrisht
  2. Phil's Magic
  3. Dromnea
