In depth
Verdict
Carried was well beaten at Tipperary on Wednesday having won over fences at Wexford last month. TENTH AMENDMENT is the only course and distance winner in the line-up and made a very encouraging return to action at Fairyhouse so gets the vote. Aprils Joy has also won around here, though over 1m6f, and she arrives on the back of a victory over timber at Downpatrick. It will be a surprise if she's not in the mix while Fast Celt is lightly raced and may do better now stepped up in trip. Lopito was engaged in the 7.00 here last night while Rockfield Westie was in the 7.30.
