Verdict
There are question marks hanging over the majority of these but Via Del Corso is lightly raced over timber, though is without a win in 19 career starts. Super Collider may need this and Hepahepa Naeney also lacks a recent run, as do Bank The Bucks and the potentially well-treated Connemara Kate. Davy Russell's mount Theonewiththeleg was second in a maiden hurdle at Sligo last week, however, and Rassi Maguire had a pipe-opener on the Flat last month. The form of KENNYSPRINCESS doesn't mark her down as an obvious candidate but she still has time on her side and Tony Martin had a well-backed winner of this 12 months ago. She could be worth an interest off a low weight if the market speaks in her favour.
