Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer Hes Our Vinnie ran his best race to date over hurdles behind the in-form Luckyinmilan at Punchestown and should have some progress in him but Railway Rule has been beaten a long way over the minimum trip in maidens since returning from a very long break. The veteran Telenor usually goes well when getting around though he's very hit and miss so this should go to THE GREY GUY, who chased home Go It Alone at Thurles and struck form at this time a year ago. Classic Jewel had been chasing before a fair run at Thurles last month, though that was over the minimum trip.
