Verdict
ESTEPONA SUN was caught in the dying strides by stable companion Boom Boom Boom at Navan on Saturday and this easier finish can see him hang on, especially as he has been raised 5lb and can run from his old mark. Tudor Manor suffered a similar fate at Limerick last month and looks to be improving rapidly so looks a threat along with Darkened, a winner over 1m1f at Tipperary and over hurdles at Kilbeggan in the past few weeks. Matilda With Me is reasonably consistent at this level though could do with some rain while Gracesolution will be suited by the extra after coming with a late run to score over 1m2f at Sligo. Satono Chevalier has yet to win but has been dropped just enough to get into this handicap.
