Verdict

Jazz Ranger is the only course winner and he's now below his last winning mark. Good Man Turk, runner-up over this trip at Naas in March, found 2m3f beyond him at Clonmel but looks certain to go well back over this trip though Tony Martin looks to have the answer with UNANSWERED (NAP). Unplaced in four starts over timber, he has completed a recent double on the Flat, improving his rating 18lb so looks thrown in off his hurdles mark here. Mise Raftaire has been well supported in her last three starts and was in touch with every chance when falling two out at Clonmel so supporters will be looking for compensation.
