Verdict
Glow Worm was staying on over the minimum in a similar race at the Curragh but this is a big step-up in trip, as it is for Value Chain, who was behind and has never raced beyond 5f. Yolo Aris is also drawn right on the outside, which is rarely favoured here, though she's performed with credit over shorter and should be suited by the extra. VOICE OF HOPE is yet another with a high draw but with most of the fancied runners on the same side he could be good enough after an eye-catching run at Listowel last weekend where he came from a long way back over that extended 6f. Formyboys made a promising start at Navan but didn't appear to appreciate softer ground at Listowel so further rain may scupper his chances.
