Verdict

Winner of a competitive bumper at the Galway festival last month, Court Maid and the expected to improve, Just A Boy with the trainer/jockey combination of Gordon Elliott and Davy Russell in his favour, can make their presence felt here in this maiden hurdle. The pair may have to settle for the minor places as the improving WHATSAFELLATODO is taken to land the spoils here following his second behind the useful Falak last month.
  1. Whatsafellatodo
  2. Court Maid
  3. Just A Boy
