Verdict

The progressive ROVING LAD ran a fine race in a maiden here earlier this month and picks up a penalty for Sunday's victory at Limerick. There's more to come and this doesn't look a difficult task. Young Milly has only won once over hurdles but has run some fine races including on this track so has to be respected. Brian Who has been running over further and could find this on the short side while it's almost a year since Mr Dickens ran. It's difficult to get excited about the remainder though Rassi Maguire would have a chance if getting a run from his reserve spot.
