Verdict

SIXTY EIGHT GUNS scored over 1m4f at Wexford under a hard drive from Johnny Murtagh and hopefully tonight's young rider, who showed promise on Solent Ridge at Bellewstown on Sunday, can get the best out of him over this shorter trip. Inishtearaght ran very well behind Follyfoot at Ballinrobe last time but connections won't be happy with a 4lb rise and Beauty Express is 8lb higher than for her only success at Listowel last September. East Of Tara found 1m4f beyond her at Roscommon, especially with the ground on the soft side, and she would have a real chance on her narrow victory over 1m1f at Gowran in May.
