Verdict
Brog Deas Nua finished runner-up on his hurdling debut but has been in poor form recently while Pershing hasn't progressed as expected having had 23 career starts without winning. Trade Marked is likely to do better in time though hasn't run since February but Mouskersize, who is moderate on the Flat, made a bright start over hurdles at Galway and should get into the frame again. Baily Smile has been racing over much further after an initial better run at around this trip but the presence of Ruby Walsh on EYES OF A TIGER looks significant and, after three solid bumper efforts, he can make a successful debut over timber. Racing Again looks best of the remainder despite a disappointing run at Downpatrick.
