Verdict

Effernock Lad dead-heated for this last year and looked on the way back when getting the heavy ground he needs at Gowran last month when a close third to Persian Wind. Runner-up that day was DONT KICK NOR BITE, who had earlier won over 2m5f at Sligo. Robert Tyner's mare will hopefully get the strong gallop she needs and can make her stamina count in a tricky handicap. First To Boogie is better over further but the progressive Robin Des Mana makes his handicap debut after a battling victory on very testing ground at Clonmel. Bilbo Bagins won over hurdles here in March and was having only his second start over fences when a close third at Thurles and looks well enough treated to get into the action.
