Verdict
Shedding didn't appear to handle soft ground at Tramore after landing a Limerick maiden over 2m4f. The veteran Here For The Craic had taken an aversion to starting stalls before gaining a surprise victory in a handicap hurdle at Cork, when Touch Of Gold was fourth, but behaved himself when returned to the Flat last time. No Way Jack is still a maiden over hurdles but ran his best race for some time at Kilbeggan and should be winning soon from this sort of mark. Ourauldman won a handicap over 2m4f here in May and all of his subsequent runs have been over that trip but AUNTY AUDREY scored over the course and distance in June and looks the one to beat with just 4lb extra to carry.
