Verdict

Five recent winners here with Pakens Rock and TIGER VOICE both having won over the track and trip, the latter when beating his rival by 5 lengths last month before falling when upsides Jack Hackett 2 out at Punchestown when going best. With Henry De Bromhead having won three of the last four, Tiger Voice looks the one to beat here. Brace Yourself made all over 2m4f at Gowran so dropping down in trip won't be a problem while Chatham Street Lad overcame jumping problems to land a Ballinrobe handicap. Triplicate has won on the Flat and over hurdles here while La Tektor looks the type to do well over fences this winter. The Big Galloper hasn't run since a fine second over timber at Cheltenham a year ago but is definitely one for the shortlist
