Verdict

Bumper winner Kopa Kilana has proved very disappointing over hurdles but Belle Of Annandale struck first-time up over timber at Perth having proved frustrating to follow on the Flat. She’s now penalised, however, and LISNAMULT LAD can take advantage given his victory in a maiden at Sligo came in a race restricted to conditional riders so he escapes a penalty. A subsequent third at Downpatrick confirmed he is still heading in the right direction. Rory's Story makes his hurdling debut having placed twice in bumpers.
