Verdict

SASSY YET CLASSY has to give weight to her rivals but has the most scope having made a winning start over timber at Cork, despite running green. Weekend Offender was a surprise winner of a conditionals’ handicap at Ballinrobe nine days ago and has more on his plate here but cheekpieces may help Little Light and Trump Card has been in decent form on the Flat since last seen over hurdles. Visioman went close a couple of times at Kilbeggan last year but is now 0-10.
