In depth

Verdict

Plenty of runners for this moderate maiden. Cliffside Park has a penalty for his bumper victory at Tramore in October and First To Boogie for his on quick ground at Bellewstown in August. Lahaag was a decent handicapper on the Flat and, though well beaten over timber so far, there should be more to come though he was behind Lets High Five It and WINTER BREEZE here last time. The latter pair both ran well but it's Mick Winters' charge who gets the nod as he was in touch for most of the way until fading from the last. Samson Bill found 2m6f stretching his stamina here last month and is expected to do much better so could repay each-way support.
