In depth

Verdict

Tiger Track, a daughter of Westerner, has a decent pedigree but Henry De Bromhead’s stable pick will probably be Judgement Day, who led until close home when only beaten half-a-length by Oakley Hall at Punchestown last month. ISODON runs in the same colours and Jamie Codd takes over the reins for the first time. Gordon Elliott’s runner is unlikely to come up against the same standard of opposition as when a close third at Naas having finished second at Limerick earlier. Newcomers As You Were, partnered by Patrick Mullins, and Stir The Pot, with Katie Walsh doing the steering, look best of the rest.
