Verdict

An open handicap in which preference is for BALLYNAHEER who has shaped well on both his starts to date over fences under patient tactics and looks to have a fair bit more to offer. C&D scorer Mistymal also has better days ahead of him and is next on the list ahead of the handily-weighted Best Mate Dave and newcomers Faded Fantasy and Blackacre.

  1. BALLYNAHEER (IRE)
  2. MISTYMAL (IRE)
  3. BEST MATE DAVE
