Verdict

The booking of Paul Townend suggests an improved run is anticipated from I'm Serious, with any strong market move to be noted. However, the one that appeals on form is STILL ALIVE, twice a winner over timber last term and coming in here off the back of a pleasing prep on the Flat at Limerick. Liclash may be on a winnable mark and has got on well with Shane Shortall in the past, while yesterday's easy Wexford winner Charle Brune now turns up here in a very different light.
  1. Still Alive
