In depth

Verdict

TENNESSEE WILDCAT has won seven races and looked on his way back to form at Tipperary last month where he travelled well throughout. He's on a handy mark nowadays and can get back on the winning trail. Clifftop didn't enjoy the run of the race at Roscommon or would have finished closer but Musalsal disappointed when strongly fancied at Fairyhouse after looking a likely future winner on his previous start there. Mountain Fox is 0-25 on the Flat and has been a beaten favourite the last twice. All The Mollies is on a long losing run but can't go any lower in the ratings and Mikey Sheehy's claim is a real bonus.
