Verdict

Dessie Hughes must be despairing of getting a chase victory out of STONEMASTER, four times a winner over timber but yet to score in 13 outings over the bigger obstacles. He's thoroughly exposed now and doesn't have much in the way of pace but this is his easiest opportunity to date and that elusive first victory should be his. Raajih was behind him over this track and trip last month and fell in the race won by Playtime Ben at Wexford where the selection finished runner-up. He can prove a threat if getting his jumping together while Present Potential has plenty of scope and it was over hurdles where he fell at Roscommon after a very narrow defeat over fences at Wexford. Castle Fall's won twice between the flags and showed his first sign of ability under Rules at Limerick when last seen in October.
