Verdict

MAGNETIC NORTH won a claimer on the Flat at Ballinrobe last month and James McAuley tries to nick one off a plater’s mark over hurdles and the booking of Rachael Blackmore seems a statement of intent. Kellie's Dream has the form on the board and the mare was impressive when securing a prize at Kilbeggan just three weeks ago. Baby Chou has her first try handicapping while Be My Hero languishes towards the foot of the weights and has historically made his presence felt in similarly low-grade fare. Angelsworknovrtime may have found a race at Cork coming too soon after a fair effort here last month so is worth more than just a cursory glance.
