Verdict

Winning bumper Parramatta was having only her fifth career start when beaten narrowly by Blackstairmountain over 1m4f at Bellewstown and a repeat of that will make her difficult to beat. The winner's trainer is represented by Koko Lane, who won a Downpatrick bumper before finishing mid-division in a Cheltenham Listed bumper. TRAIN OF THOUGHT looked a bright prospect for hurdling when scoring at the Galway Festival and wasn't disgraced behind Missunited back on the Flat at Ballinrobe. He'll enjoy the quicker ground here and is taken to get the better of Cul Baire, who found 1m4f just too short at Wexford after landing a bumper at Galway.
