Verdict

Clondaw Rigger has gone up 3lb since finishing second in a higher grade at Ffos Las but is still on a winning mark so much respected. Jurys Out has his ground but still has stamina to prove whereas BALLYBREEN is a dour stayer. The latter has never won off a mark this high but should be capable of doing so if continuing last season’s improvement. Crossley Tender is starting to look well handicapped and has had a pipe-opener and Findusatgorcombe is another with decent claims off today’s mark
