Verdict

The Henry De Bromhead yard have a solid record at this meeting in the last four years and their Westerner gelding DUE REWARD can land the spoils here on chasing debut. The 132-rated handicap hurdler can see off the attentions of fellow debutantes' over the larger obstacles, Mohart and the Willie Mullins-trained, Sayo. Jack Dillinger for trainer Joseph O'Brien is not completely dismissed.
