Verdict

Fantasy King provided a shock when comfortably landing a bumper under tonight's rider at Punchestown at the backend of last month and should have no problems dropping back slightly in trip as he is bred for pace being out of a 7f winner. He should go well but the greater experience of SWIFTMARC may prevail. Dessie Hughes' charge has been in superb form over timber recently scoring on fast ground at Punchestown and Tipperary and can make his first venture on the flat a winning one. Lend A Hand Son is another in good heart and gained his first-ever success in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last week but Siege Of Ennis has a career record of 1-39 and was behind Swiftmarc at Punchestown.
