Verdict

Trainer Noel Meade appears to have found an ideal opportunity for the Touch Of Land gelding, MOMUS to getoff the mark over hurdles at the fourth time of asking. The six-year-old who has been hitting the bar of late can get the better of the Gordon Elliott-trained Swordsman and last time out winner, Westport Lady.
  1. Momus
