Verdict

Givemeabuzz is better known as a point-to-point winner but he's won over hurdles and isn't badly treated for this low grade event. Slivegullion Girl ran her best race to date when last seen at Kilbeggan but that was almost a year ago and ROBBIE KAYDEE looks to have a better chance. He's still a maiden under Rules but ran a fine race behind All Honours at Tramore last month and a repeat should be good enough. The fifteen-year-old A New Story was a long way behind in that latter race and will be having his 110th race here.
