Verdict
A few of these are reappearing after a break and the market will probably be the best guide the chances of Special Token, Askmeroe, Kylebeg Krystle and Colls Corner. Toomdeely is out again quickly after finishing third over a longer trip here on Sunday, however, and CLARKEY was second over hurdles at Downpatrick earlier this month. That should have put Christy Roche's 11-year-old spot-on as he bids to repeat last year's win in this off an identical weight. Roche also runs Silver Canyon owned, like Life Of Reilly, by J P McManus while Instant Impacked won at Tramore last month but disappointed when favourite at Ballinrobe shortly after.
