Verdict

One Cool Poet had a run over fences before reverting to the Flat with a good effort over 1m5f at Leopardstown while Rock On Seamie has had an outing over hurdles since two good efforts on the level. The latter could find this ground on the fast side but Rips Dream will enjoy the conditions despite having only won at Dundalk. The lightly-raced Karasheni makes his handicap debut over this more suitable trip but with his yard in such brilliant form it's hard to see past BUILDING BRIDGES, who makes his handicap debut on what looks a lenient mark after landing a 1m5f maiden at Navan.
