Verdict

Black Bamboo makes his handicap debut after easily landing the odds in a Cork maiden. Punchestown maiden winner Striking was only beaten a length on his handicap debut back there last month. Lazer Wolf has been running well without making the breakthrough while Park Of Kings was probably undone by heavy ground at Gowran after completing a handicap double. WOODSTREAM LAD changed stables and won very easily at Thurles last month. He's been handed an 11lb rise but can complete a double. Makfils is 0-18 over timber but beat all bar the gambled-on St Denis's Well at Navan while Riyami comes here off a victory at Dundalk on Friday and has a feather-weight.
