Verdict

CAPTURE THE DRAMA may be approaching fifteen but he's no back number as he showed at Clonmel where he scored with some ease. He's only been raised 2lb and has won from very much higher marks in the distant past. Vodka Society is the same age and he won this back in 2020 then finished second a year ago. He's no forlorn hope to get back on the winning trail. Lessofdnegativity is 1-14 over fences but has been gradually coming down in the weights and was unlucky to be brought down at the first at Thurles last month. Camilla's Choice scored between the flags and has shown ability over timber so should do better now tackling the bigger obstacles on her handicap debut.
