Verdict

Sunwake twice ran well at the Galway Festival before falling at Kilbeggan and looks well enough weighted to make his presence felt. Hunting Tower has been raised 4lb for finishing runner-up to Dream Champion at Ballinrobe but Ruby Walsh is a very positive booking. Awkward Moment is progressing nicely but he went up 10lb for finishing second at Punchestown and was beaten a long way into third at Sligo last time. Grangeclare Gold is a tough mare as she showed when battling to victory at Bellewstown and though she is now on her highest ever mark she looks sure to take some beating. However, KING HIGH who ran out at the third last that day when in with every chance, is well capable of taking this at his best though there has been a few too many blips in his form despite his five jumping victories. Paul Carberry takes the ride for the first time and his presence can hopefully galvanise his mount to another success.
