Verdict

Club Wexford had three runs in quick succession, winning the first of them from tonight's mark over 7f here. He's had a break and can get competitive. Auckland looked to be progressing nicely before a moderate effort at Leopardstown though she didn't get the run of the race. ROOM TO ROAM has been racing over much further since scoring over 7f at Leopardstown and hasn't quite been getting home. The drop in trip can enable him to continue his trainer and rider's fine form though Trevanna, who completed a double when scoring on testing ground here in October, will be better for last month's reappearance at Leopardstown. Pincheck reappeared with a maiden victory over this trip on that latter track and didn't quite last home when tackling an extended 1m1f at Gowran so he could prove a threat.
