In depth

Verdict

Tangental had shown nothing before staying on strongly to score over 2m4f at Fairyhouse. He's up 6lb but a 7lb claimer has been booked so he looks certain to give a good account. Mister Butler had been chasing before reverting to hurdles over 2m7f at Fairyhouse where he led at the last before succumbing on the run-in though he was receiving 18lb from the winner. Ask David was returning from a very long break when runner-up over the track and trip in December. He's been inconsistent in the past but would have a chance if in that kind of form. GET HOME didn't last home over 2m6f on heavy ground at Limerick but her earlier efforts when narrowly beaten over 2m4f and 2m at Fairyhouse suggests this should be her trip and she can finally get off the mark.
