Verdict

Britzka, three-times a winner over hurdles, acts on quick ground and looks the main threat to CLONDAW HOLLOW. John McConnell's charge, a winner between the flags and twice successful over timber, finished last of three on his chasing debut but obviously learnt plenty as he only just failed to make all over 2m6f at Kilbeggan in April. Indian Admiral moved yards and was beaten a long way on his return from a long absence at Downpatrick last month while Victory Sign has shown nothing but Mr Saxobeat hails from a yard in top form.
