In depth

Verdict

Ballyvoge is impossible to oppose here with Vicious Prince and Two Tonys Sham rating the m,ain dangers. The selection is held in the highest of regard by his shrewd connetions is bred to be suited by the ground and in a modest affair he need only put in a clear round to win this before going on to better things. Vicious Prince rates the main danger on his deut fifth behind Mister Jungle, he looks sure to improve but he will need to do so and the suspicion is he will be seen to even better effect over a longer trip. Two Tonys Sham is another with place claims on his latest fourth behind Jack The Blaster but he is exposed in relation to the selection and is taken on with this in mind. Of the remainder Ham Jammer will be handicaped after this run and that is were his future may lie and with this in mind for the winner we return to Ballyvoge.
