Verdict
Robin Des Foret started a short-priced favourite on his debut at Wexford though he looked in need of the run, only tiring in the closing stages after travelling nicely. SIZING KNOCKEEN hasn't run since last May when a very good third at Clonmel. The winner and third have both won subsequently and Jamie Codd can steer him home. Mindsmadeup started out over hurdles at Sligo where he ran well for a long way and Derek O'Connor's presence in the saddle is a bonus. Bensachuine has had enough chances while the four-year-old filly Angelica Yeats improved when stepped up to 2m4f at Roscommon.
