Verdict

An excellent prize which Noel Meade is going for in a big way with four entries, all who look to have a chance. Ruby Walsh is a rare booking for the yard on the novice Bose Ikard, who had stablemate Please Talk 2l behind at Roscommon in August though the latter is 4lb better off. Paul Carberry rode the stable's Tom Horn to a comfortable victory at Sligo recently though a 5lb penalty gives him a bit more to do. Irish National runner-up Golden Wonder is slowly making his way back to form and can carry his big weight with distinction while Shanpallas ran an excellent race when third in the Kerry National with an out of sorts Usuel Smurfer well beaten. Back Off Mate has been in good form but this is an unknown trip and Raajih is looking a bit high in the weights. COLDSTONESOBER didn't enjoy the soft ground at Gowran and providing the going remains fast he can take advantage of his low weight under Kevin Sexton, whose claim was invaluable when Jimmy Finn's charge landed a nice prize at Galway last month.
