This is a tough start for punters though ROUND TOWER looks to have as a good a chance as any. A bumper winner on this track, he put a poor hurdling debut behind him when he just failed to handle Devlin Road after attempting to make all over the course and distance in March. Areema was behind and looks held and Sarwistan has disappointed so far over timber after looking a decent prospect in bumpers. The four-year-old Credulous did better over a slightly longer trip at Wexford while The Nutcracker ran her best race to date over this trip at the same meeting. Space Ship's close third behind To Choose at Fairyhouse last month would put him into contention.
