        Verdict

        Most of these are badly out of form including Macadam's Rock, a close second in a Limerick handicap in April but beaten a long way in both subsequent starts. ALICE KITTY also ran poorly at Navan last time but her earlier form in maidens, plus her low-value claiming price, suggests she should be good enough for this. Whyzzat makes a quick reappearance after a fair run in a Limerick handicap on Friday though finished behind Rare Flower in a similar race to this at Roscommon last month.
