Verdict

This doesn’t look to have the depth of the first division and Richard Fahey who won both divisions of this last year will be struggling to win one of them this year. He runs the quirky Ballymore Castle in this a horse who only has one maiden win to his name. SHORT WORK has been in very progressive form of late and ran well last time out with the 7f trip finding him out and this 6f will suit much better and he looks to have a leading chance to score another handicap victory. See The Sun has his best chance for a while to break his losing spell but another place may be the best he can manage while Tricky Dicky has shown his best form of late on synthetic surfaces. Adam’s Ale would be interesting if he could regain his earlier form from a yard that are always to be respected with their sprinters.
  1. Short Work
  2. See The Sun
  3. Adam's Ale
