Verdict

Show And Go was heavily supported at Wexford last month but was already under pressure when making a mistake at the last. He looks to have enough weight while it was only a seller that An Capall Mor won at Perth and he's another on a high enough mark. EXIT SEVEN (NAP) came here last month after a couple of moderate efforts but he produced his best run to date over timber to finish runner-up to Ballyfin Boy. He's only been raised 1lb and should go one better. Carlyan has shown promise and can't go any lower in the weights and Couleur De La Loi has a victory on the track to his credit.
