Verdict
Sargent Lightfoot is the only course winner in the line-up having scored last month though an 8lb rise took its toll at Cork. WOJOOD is on a hat-trick having followed his recent success at Ballinrobe with another on the Flat at Tramore last week. He's only 4lb higher than the former success so gets the nod. Dual Flat winner Lariat is still a maiden over timber but is by no means out of this with Rachael on board while Via Rosa makes her handicap debut after landing a Sligo maiden in convincing fashion. Rare Conor is running well but a strike-rate of 0-31 hardly inspires confidence and Tramore novice winner Rotten Row makes more appear.
