In depth

Verdict

Festive Day completed a double between the flags last spring but his two runs under Rules, including over fences last time, have produced nothing. This looks a poor maiden and should be no problem for DOUBLE SCORES, a winning point-to-pointer who made a promising start over hurdles at Clonmel when runner-up to Alto Esqua where he was always in the front rank. Atlantic Breaker has shown a bit of potential between the flags though nothing so far over hurdles and the remainder have been struggling.
