Verdict

Andy Oliver has three running in this but it will be a surprise if either Sticks And Stones or Velocity Of Sound finishes ahead of TAX REFORM. The Namid gelding stepped up on his debut at Down Royal to only be beaten a nose over 7f at Galway and it's worth risking that he'll stay the extra here. Lake Nova looked sure to win an ordinary maiden after finishing second on debut at Naas in May but hasn't progressed and was beaten a long way at Ballinrobe last month. Banker Burke started favourite at Bellewstown last time but has a bit to prove now.
