This should prove a cracker between WAAHEB and Cash And Go who have both been very impressive. The former cantered home on his debut at Leopardstown in January and though not winning far on a return visit the following month his supporters never had a moment's concern. He looks out of the top drawer as does Cash And Go though it's difficult to get a line on the form of his easy success at Thurles as none of the placed horses have run since. Adajarad is a well-connected type with the pedigree to do well in this sphere but most of the remainder will do better when facing obstacles.
