Verdict

Dark Outsider put in a career-best effort when winning at Wexford last time but it is debatable whether this veteran has any further improvement in him off this mark. ICELIP was third in that race, making late headway in only his third outing over fences, and it’s worth noting that all three of his hurdles victories came over this course and distance. Seskin Flyer has never looked comfortable over fences, and the same can be said of Field Exhibition, who is without a win in eighteen starts. Bellgrove isn’t well handicapped after a string of seconds, but Invincible Don is of each-way interest off a handy mark.
