Verdict

Warhead gained an easy victory on his chasing debut and ran very well in a handicap at Wexford a month ago. GOT ATTITUDE was having his first start since February when running well at the Punchestown Festival and will be ready for this. He's best over this trip on similar ground so appears to have everything going for him. The Sneezer won three times over fences before failing to take a good opportunity from a much lower mark over hurdles at Gowran and the handicapper may have hold of him now. Kakagh has been mixing it with the best but hasn't shown much and a much bigger threat may emerge from Bideford Legend, whose latest run over hurdles is best ignored and who has shown himself capable of landing a race of this nature on several occasions.
