Verdict
Ask Philip is getting better with experience though will need to step up while Gorki D'airy has been a short-priced beaten favourite in three of his four starts for Willie Mullins. SENECIA was an 80/1 chance when runner-up at Limerick and a better round of jumping can see him go one better as Diamondinthemud didn't stay 2m5f at Tramore after a fine effort over 2m at Punchestown. North Of Nashville was beaten a long way into third at Downpatrick and did much better on good ground at Limerick earlier while winning point-to-pointer Secret She Keeps ran a shocker when a short-priced favourite at Fairyhouse in January where she can't have been right.
