Verdict

Eoin Griffin and Paul Townend can team up and take this with Bellewstown bumper winner ST DEVITE, who has raced in better class events over hurdles including when third in a Listed contest here in October. Revelling landed a Wexford bumper a year ago and produced her best run over timber when runner-up to Take It Easee here in December. Taralga has won three times on the flat and was having only her second start over timber when runner-up to Lancetto at Wexford on St Patrick's Day.
