In depth
Verdict
Flame Bearer has looked very useful in scoring at Thurles and Limerick though LETSBECLEARABOUTIT has come up against Sir Gerhard and Kilcruit in his two victories since completing a double and can get back to winning ways. Ballycairn ran well when third to Kilcruit at Navan before scoring at Leopardstown while Mr Jackman has run very well over hurdles since completing a double in bumpers last summer. Harry Alonzo and Sundrenched are entitled to make progress after their victories though the latter has an absence to overcome.
