Verdict

Avanzi made his debut in a Ballinrobe bumper in May last year and wasn't beaten far into third. He has plenty of scope and may prove better than these in time but Flat winner WITH A START arrives in fine shape having just failed to cope with Run For Mary over 2m1f on the level at Bellewstown. He gets the nod as the remainder have shown very little and Peres Et Fils has something to prove after pulling up when well supported at Kilbeggan earlier this month. Utah, formerly trained at Ballydoyle and once rated 96, may prove best of the remainder.
