In depth

Verdict

Bellgrove is 1-17 over fences and been beaten a long way when placed in his last two starts. Dawerann is yet to win over fences in eight starts and has been hurdling without much success but better ground should bring about some improvement from FLORAL FANTASY. Enda Bolger's mare was in good form over hurdles last summer and though not showing much over fences she's been racing in unsuitable conditions and should have more to offer. Simiel has been well beaten over the bigger obstacles though is another who should do better on this ground but it's a long time since Ballyfinboy won a race.
