Verdict

WALKING ON GLASS had been running poorly when last seen over hurdles but put that behind him with an emphatic victory on his handicap debut over this trip at Navan. The assessor has reacted with a 10lb rise but he's still only on 58 and can go higher. Cache Queen has run here just once, scoring over the trip last summer, and she returned to form with a fine run at Leopardstown a couple of weeks ago so looks certain to get competitive. Shakespear'sgalley won over 2m1f at Killarney and probably find the ground too quick over a similar trip at the Curragh at the weekend while Alcatraz found 1m2f too short at Cork though he doesn't win very often.
