Verdict

Quite a few with jumping issues here including BALLELA BOY who has had his mistakes ironed out since unseating at Clonmel in November. The seven-year-old looks to be on a handy mark on handicap debut and appears to be improving at a quicker rate than some of the opposition here. Take The Cash and the gallant veteran Aranhill Rascal can out run their odds to hit the frame in this contest.
  1. Ballela Boy
  2. Aranhill Rascal
  3. Take The Cash
