Verdict
ARDAMIR had Politicise two-and-a-half-lengths behind in a similar race at Ballinrobe and they meet on the same terms so should have few problems confirming the form. Mandarin Monarch, four-times a winner over timber, has been running in much better company since scoring at Navan in March and looks a major threat while the veteran My Manekineko was in very good form in the spring and takes a distinct drop in grade. Vermilion Cliffs is having his first start for the in-form Denis Hogan and is one to keep an eye on while Grangeclare Native was engaged in the 7.30 at Ballinrobe last night.
