Verdict

St Killenagh makes a swift reappearance after finishing second at Down Royal on Monday but others are preferred today. Larry Capri looked a nice prospect when winning at Bellurgan Park last month and Dermot McLoughlin's charge looks the main danger to SHAKE IT UP. Jim Dreaper's seven-year-old rather ran in snatches when odds-on at Loughrea last month but is now reunited with Jamie Codd, who rode him to victory at Loughanmore in March. Kilna Shane made a winning reappearance at Stradbally and won’t be far away if translating that form to hunter chases.
