Verdict

Another moderate affair, but an interesting enough race nevertheless with the Irish raider Your Pal Tal firmly respected against these rivals. He was far better than these horses once upon a time, and his trainer perhaps sensibly offers him some variety away from Dundalk in a bid to thwart a win-less sequence. Frank The Barber perhaps isn't the most willing conveyance, but he tends to perform well at this track and he merits respect from a low draw, but the tentative selection is NOBLE DEED. He is 2lb better off with his recent C&D conqueror Krazy Paving (since switched to Olly Murphy), and that improved showing represented a clear return to form. His current handicap mark of 50 looks exploitable when you consider that he was twice narrowly denied over this C&D from 11lb higher as recently as April and May 2017.
