Verdict

Shark Hanlon has snapped up Pat Smullen for CAMLANN (NAP) and the move can pay off. The six-year-old ran three times at this fixture last year, finishing third twice on the Flat including in this race then scoring over hurdles. He's continued in excellent form over timber, winning three times this year, and a mark of 65 looks there to be exploited. Usa makes a quick reappearance after a narrow defeat by Serefeli here on Tuesday while Lucca continues to thrive and is by no means harshly treated despite his recent double. Papal Motel had been going extremely well over hurdles before a narrow defeat over this trip at Limerick where the ground looked too fast and he reverts to the Flat on a very feasible mark. Shamar's recent second at Down Royal puts him in the frame as that was over a trip too short.
