Verdict

AFOREMENTIONED (NAP) couldn't handle Doctor Duffy at Kilbeggan but that was no disgrace as the winner looks to have a chance in the preceding Grade B handicap. Gordon Elliott's charge can go one better as Line Out finished a lot further behind Doctor Duffy at Tipperary earlier. The remainder make little appeal though winning bumper and hurdler Fred The Foot may have more to offer over fences and four-times hurdles winner Dromore Lad makes his debut over the bigger obstacles.
