Verdict
Rising Dust has shown ability over timber and has a chaser‘s pedigree while dual hurdles winner Appian Way did not get far on his chasing debut at Thurles and can probably do better. NOBLE BLUE had Carrig Carol 16 lengths behind when they occupied the places behind Silent Approach at Gowran. Wee Charlie and Nephin Beg were well beaten and the runner-up should have few problems confirming the form and can go one better. Sixhandsinmypocket, who had made a decent start over fences on this track, fell when in touch at the ninth in that Gowran event while Got To Fly showed ability over timber and has a chaser‘s pedigree.
