Verdict

The Noel Meade yard won this race 12 months ago with Sellarbridge and could repeat the feat with the Westerner gelding PART TIME FARMER. The four-year-old cost €312,000 as a three-year-old and can land the closing contest on debut at the expense of the Gordon Elliott-trained Glenveagh Park who is sure to be of interest on debut under jockey Jamie Codd. Cathmart Desjy is closely related to a number of smart sorts and should not be underestimated along with the Derek O'Connor-ridden, Line Break.
  1. Part Time Farmer
  2. Glenveagh Park
  3. Cathmart Desjy
