Verdict

WALKING ON GLASS lost out in the stewards' room when first past the post at Punchestown 40 days ago and he's well worth the chance to gain compensation given his unexposed profile at staying trips. The Caddy Rose has a much lower mark to work with in this sphere and commands respect, as do Gealach and Shanwalla.
