Verdict

TUNE THE CHELLO comfortably opened his account over fences at Limerick last time and appears to have been handed a lenient mark based on his hurdling exploits, so he's fancied to go in again for all this is a competitive affair. His stablemate, Centurion Steel, has made a positive start and ranks as a danger, as does Stylish Moment,

  1. TUNE THE CHELLO (IRE)
  2. CENTURION STEEL (IRE)
  3. STYLISH MOMENT (IRE)
