In depth

Verdict

There are genuine going concerns surrounding a number of these, including like favourite Prosperity Square who won over track and trip on soft ground two weeks ago. Burning Issues continues to make mistakes but Model Cloud produced his best run so far over fences when second at Tramore on good going at the start of the month when a place ahead of Roevin Star. WILLIAM DU BERLAIS can be forgiven his latest run at Punchestown as he was badly hampered. He won off a much higher mark over hurdles last year and is still relatively unexposed over the larger obstacles. Massinis Adventure has the past form to figure but may need this.
