Verdict
BAMAKO MORIVIERE gets a chance to gain compensation for a last-fence fall at Limerick when well in command. That was a much-improved run and, with further progress likely, he should make amends. Capital Force, who started a short-priced favourite, was in touch when falling four out and is obviously well regarded. Aint Dunne Yet did well over hurdles but looks like being a better chaser judging by his opening run at Clonmel where he led for a long way over that 2m2f before headed by Montana Belle. Tombstone, who beat Jezki easily in a Grade 3 hurdle at Gowran in February, is a very interesting debutant over fences in what should be an informative contest.
