Verdict
PRICKLY, three times a bumper winner, made a very good start over timber at Limerick then undoubtedly found the ground too fast over the minimum trip at Tramore. He has a penalty to carry but should be good enough in a moderate contest. Ballybryan ran his best race to date behind Jesmond Lodge at Sligo a fortnight ago though that was over the minimum and on very testing ground. Winning point-to-pointer Double Captain caught the eye on his debut in a Roscommon bumper last month and is one to note but Kanjo has been running poorly since finishing runner-up at Downpatrick in March.
