In depth

Verdict

Shane Rock has run well enough on both starts over fences to be considered and his overall form is probably slightly stronger than that of Thepartysover, who will need to jump better. Batiatus is a recruit from the point-to-point field who will have been well schooled by Paul Nolan while Rua Nua will have come on for a fair chasing debut behind Pretty Happy at Clonmel. CONVINCING won four times over hurdles and hasn't done badly over fences with his latest close third behind Jacks Island at Clonmel probably good enough for this.
