Verdict

BITE THAT is just 1 lb above the mark off which he scored over C&D last August, and he is appealing on the back of a solid effort over fences at Wexford when last seen. Fellow C&D winner Port Rashid also returned to form on his latest start, hitting the crossbar in a handicap at Ballinrobe, and he is next on the list ahead of Star Official.

  1. BITE THAT (IRE)
