Verdict
Broughshane was backed against last Saturday’s Long Walk winner Crambo on his hurdling debut last season but didn’t get far before running out. He’s obviously well regarded but may need today’s run. Already placed here at at Ffos Las, MINELLA BLUEWAY is rated 118 and unlikely to be far away again. Check The Score has won a point and a bumper so this is a natural progression while there is surely more to come from Largy Poet and Mahland won between the flags at the start of the year.
