Verdict
Shoulda Lied beat a big field of maidens at Tipperary last July but hasn't run since pulling up at Galway the same month. West Coast Time has been looking a bit high in the weights since his maiden success in 2017 while Wounded Warrior is better known as a chaser these days. LIZZIES CHAMP was in excellent form last summer and, though not seen since falling at Killarney in August, was only beaten a neck on his reappearance and can get back to winning ways. Best Behavior's only victory came on heavy ground so some rain would help.
