Verdict

TARA LINE, by Kayf Tara out of a winning miler, gradually improved in point-to-points and made all for a convincing victory at Largy in April and should have the pace for this. Let's Go Amigo, from a yard in form, has a stamina-packed pedigree so will have been unsuited by two miles in a Warwick bumper but Annie Wicks hasn't shown much in her two starts in bumpers.
