Verdict

Fill Your Hands won a Roscommon bumper early last month and made a satisfactory debut over hurdles at Listowel where a couple of novice errors didn't help. He'll definitely come on for the experience and should make the frame. Mr Diablo had a spin over hurdles at Fairyhouse in January before coming here in May for a bumper which he won in very impressive fashion. He looks a bright prospect for jumping as does PRINCELY CONN, who is taken to make a successful debut. Tom Mullins' charge beat a decent field in a Galway bumper in July and returned there last month to be beaten a head by the in-form Sheamus, who has subsequently completed a hat-trick. Mount Corkish Girl has an absence to overcome but looks best of the remainder.
