In depth

Verdict

Burren View Lady made a successful trip over to Ayr last month though had earlier been beaten at Cork by one of today’s reserves, Blue Bounty. HATTON CROSS was runner-up in that race on his first start of the year and he may prove good enough today, though I Will Excel is back on a winning mark and could figure also dropping back down in distance while Free Code won at Newcastle in February for David Barron and debuts for new connections. Oor Jock and Battleroftheboyne have plenty to find with the selection.
