Verdict
A very good prize with Frenetic attempting to recapture the form that saw him win four times last summer including twice at Listed level. Colin Keane picks him over My Laureate but they are up against some in-form rivals. Chief amongst those is Provocateuse, who is on a hat-trick after a comfortable victory at the Curragh though a 12lb rise makes this much tougher. That's Mad was receiving 14lb from JUNGLE JANE (NAP) when half-a-length to the good at Bellewstown but revised conditions give the latter a cracking chance and she can go one better.
