Verdict

Considering he was a prolific winner on the Flat, BEN LILLY has been a disappointment over hurdles so far but he is not going to get many easier opportunities than this. Glengeever is the obvious danger having yet to finish out of the frame in four hurdle starts and he has only found one too good in his last three. Mr Craftsman was second in a maiden point last month but is best watched having a first run under Rules and Ballygoe’s progress has stalled.
