Verdict

ROLLING REVENGE isn't getting any younger, but he clearly still has something to offer judged on recent efforts, including when finishing a creditable fourth off this mark at Thurles 3 weeks ago. He earns the vote ahead of Balaclava, who will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward. Bellgrove shouldn't be far away, while Brandy Harbour and Trans Wood are others to consider.
