Verdict

Shane Fitzgerald has been amongst the winners and he was on board when He's Leading Me On was placed at Punchestown in May. His mount very nearly lost his maiden tag when beaten a neck at Tramore and looks progressive enough to get into contention though he's held by MUNTAHEZ on that Punchestown run. The latter chased home the prolific Unanswered that day, easily his best run over timber to date, and a similar run would see him difficult to beat. James O'Sullivan has been in demand and Clody Valley won over fences in April and reverts to hurdles on an 11lb lower mark. Presenting Lad is 0-17 but ran well at Wexford last time while Karla Martina and Beat Of The Sea can get involved without threatening.
