Verdict

The game, tough and genuine gelding Storm Rising may have to settle for a minor place here following his exploits this week at the Galway festival behind a couple of exciting improving sorts. Feeling The Love winner of her last couple of starts at Killarney and Limerick can give DUE REWARD the most to think about as he attempts to land a hat-traick of wins here. The Henry De Bromhead-trained gelding may find an 8lb rise for his last win at Kilbeggan may not be enough to slow the impressive five-year-old down despite the 5lb pull by the mare.
  1. Due Reward
