Verdict

BALLYBURKE didn't look like catching Bruff when runner-up at Galway last time. But this is less competitive and Philip Rothwell's charge can go one better. Art Lord made a promising start over fences at Wexford and can figure while Jupitor has claims on his earlier third to Mart Lane over these fences. Grand Jesture and Los Amigos are worth keeping an eye on as they go chasing for the first time and Forjoethepainter may also get involved if taking to the larger obstacles.
