In depth
Verdict
Invincible Don hadn't been running well before a much improved effort at Killarney on Thursday and can run from the same mark. Island Master has only won once but has been going well on ground he likes though the latter remark also applies to CANTKIDAKIDDER. He's only won once in 21 starts over hurdles but there was plenty to like about his second run over fences at Wexford when runner-up. Oighear Dubh, a winning point-to-pointer and hurdler, was noted making god late headway over timber at Killarney on Monday and looks on a fair mark over fences while the veteran Lash It On could be capable of one last hoorah from this sort of mark.
