Verdict

YOUNG FITZY has slipped to an attractive mark and again shaped as though his turn may be near when fourth here on Sunday. The 8-y-o can underline that impression by regaining the winning thread, perhaps at the chief expense of Crowsatedappletart, who wasn't seen to best effect back in this sphere at Cork last week. Kate Ill Know is also considered on the back of a creditable effort at Clonmel, while Firework is a possible improver now pitched into a handicap.
