Verdict

IN YOUR SHADOW has been running well over fences including winning well last time out at Tipperary. The six-year-old can race off a much lower handicap mark over hurdles and given the lack of talent in the opposition he could be capable of landing this despite his hurdles form not being too good. Whitango perhaps suffered from the bounce effect after not running as well last time as he had done on his first run for year years at Tipperary in June. If competing as well as his reappearance run then he holds every chance. If Lighthouse Rose can improve her jumping then she has the talent to land this contest off her current mark.
