Verdict

TOUCHEDBYANANGEL couldn’t complete the hat-trick at Tramore last time, but the drop to 2m may not have helped and he travelled very well through the race before being caught for toe, this longer trip is up his street. The booking of Paul Townend is promising for former C&D winner Creative Talent while Thecraicisninety could be a decent contender now into handicaps having won at Ballinrobe. Tramore winner Moonball is also worth paying attention to up in distance.
