Verdict
Only a couple make any appeal on recent form and Fabrique En France still has something to prove over this far having faded in the closing stages over track and trip. But LIMERICK LEADER was beaten less than a length back over fences at Newcastle last time and Rose Dobbin’s charge is taken to go one better in this lower grade chase. Harry Du Berlais is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best but Coupdebol’s only win over fences so far came on heavy ground.
