Verdict

Liamba won a lower grade contest over course and distance last time though only beat Global Melody a head with Our Charlie Brown further behind. David O’Meara’s charge should be in the mix again but AL SUIL EILE is preferred. The latter showed early pace when going close over 7f on his Fibresand debut and can confirm running with fourth-placed Bedtime Bella in the process of going one better. Global Hope makes more appeal than Eternal Sun of the remainder if taking to the surface.
