Verdict

LIBERTY LOVE has made a successful comeback after being absent since 2008. He scored at Wolverhampton in April and only just failed to catch Star Of Aragon at Wexford last month and he's still well enough handicapped to take this. Daytime Dreamer had been in good form at Dundalk before landing a handicap over timber at Downpatrick but Carlowsantana hasn't won for over two years though he did run well when last seen over hurdles in April. Moonlight Sapphire was behind the selection at Wexford but has since scored over hurdles at Tipperary and Tinas Exhibition wasn't beaten far over a trip too short at Cork last week.
