Verdict
Ain't That A Shame, a winner on testing ground over timber, has come up against two very smart Willie Mullins-trained winners in his races over fences and looks certain to get involved. The latter's yard is represented by Cavallino, who chased home long odds-on stablemate Stratum at Thurles last month having fallen on his chasing debut. INDIANA JONES was narrowly beaten in his first two starts over fences and was making a race of it with the very smart Capodanno at Naas when falling two out. The latter gave Bob Olinger a run for his money in a Punchestown Grade 3 on Sunday so Mouse Morris' charge can gain compensation. The Bosses Oscar has now been a beaten favourite in his four starts over fences including when pulled up in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown last month.
