Verdict
Tony Martin rarely misses an opportunity and has booked the in-form Jake Coen for TUDOR CITY (NAP), placed in this a year ago and a winner over timber at Leopardstown last month. The combination can pay off though Auckland also scored over hurdles last month before a very good third over 1m7f at Leopardstown. Razdan is consistent at this level and has no problems with the trip but the lightly-raced Impero has never been further than 1m2f nor has Nectarine, beaten 12 lengths into third at Roscommon. Alma Libre has been staying on over 1m2f while Common Practice has only had one run in a handicap but all his races have been at 7f.
