Verdict

Tirmizi, a three-times a winner on Turf, is 0-7 around here and Michael Halford may have a better chance with Spelga, who completed a hat-trick here at the end of 2019 and has continued to run well though is possibly a few pounds high. Battle Of Benburb has had a couple of runs over hurdles but was a long way behind GLORIOUS ZOFF when Gordon Elliott's charge won easily at Sligo. Sam Ewing's claim is a massive plus for the latter who can make his first visit here pay off. Dances With Stars makes his handicap debut and is an obvious contender after two close seconds here last month.
