Verdict

SUMMER TIDE failed to stay 3m at Galway but had been in good form with 2 placed efforts before that, including here, and could be the answer to this open handicap. This trip is maximum for Flying Scotsman but he might get away with it around here and is feared most ahead of Gordon Elliott's Mars Harper.

  2. FLYING SCOTSMAN (IRE)
  3. MARS HARPER
