Verdict

Irish raider TORCELLO can follow up his recent Tramore victory by defying a penalty in this novice hurdle contest. The selection had previously placed a number of times over hurdles and looks capable of getting the better of hurdling newcomer Mill Green who represents a leading yard here while Roll Of The Dice, a course winner last time can claim third.
  1. Torcello
  2. Mill Green
  3. Roll Of The Dice
