In depth

Verdict

Plenty with chances here but CAITLIN BROOK deserves a victory after matching strides for much of the way with Willie Mullins' very impressive Dr Machini at Fairyhouse. Ted Veale was well beaten by another Mullins winner in Morning Royalty at Punchestown and though the latter has been beaten since it was by a high-class performer. Six Stone Ned didn't show any improvement last time but Rear View was behind in a very strong bumper here last month and should do better. Magic Spear is a well connected newcomer who should be monitored in the betting.
