Verdict

My Immortal looks the type to have a cracking season but could find this on the short side on this ground. Skippin Court has gone up 6lb for scoring over the trip at Listowel but EBASARI isn't on a bad mark. Gordon Elliott's charge easily landed a conditions hurdle at Downpatrick and his two subsequent runs have been in much better company than this. Curious Times has more to do than when winning at Perth while Kilbeggan maiden winner Esperti was beaten a long way in novice company at Killarney. King Kal was well supported when comfortably landing a Downpatrick maiden and is by no means overburdened for his handicap debut. Typical Thomas was engaged in the 2.55 yesterday.
