Verdict

CELTIC MANOR came here for the first time last month and defied a long absence to land a handicap over the trip. He found dropping back to 5f against him at Navan and though he's 8lb higher than that victory he's taken to regain the winning thread. Inventor hasn't been beaten far in any of his previous three races but course and distance winner Talking Tough find this on the short side these days. Bayou Belle's best two runs have been on testing ground so some rain would aid her cause while Cometh The Man is 0-35. Hands Down gained her only career victory from 4lb lower here last May.
