Verdict

Trainer Gavin Cromwell PRETTY FANTASY appears to have found an ideal opening for his daughter of Casamento to break her duck at the seventh attempt. The four-year-old produced a career best effort by some way when running Shopping Around to a neck in a mares' handicap hurdle on heavy ground at Clonmel last month over a similar trip. Punchestown winner in January, My Club Colours can emerge as the biggest danger with The Chapel Field, beaten favourite on most recent start at Cork in December and the veteran, Knockraha Boss capable of hitting the frame.
