Verdict

THE ROAD TO FAME was fairly useful in bumpers and showed a similar level of form when third on his hurdles bow at Gowran, so should prove hard to beat in what looks a weak maiden. Friends N Commerce stepped up on his hurdles bow when fourth at Thurles so is respected, while Speed Gang is a newcomer to note having finished runner-up in a couple of points.
