Verdict
Winning point-to-pointer Silent Wish is still a maiden over timber but she's run well here and on heavy going so should get competitive. The Grey Guy was in fine form in the spring and scored over three miles here so has to be respected along with Easy To Find, who has joined an in-form yard after landing a point-to-point last month. Cerca Trova was well supported despite returning from a very long absence when sent over fences Sedgefield and though he ran poorly there must have been expectations of a better effort. Varene De Vauzelle is inconsistent though he did run well at Thurles last time but was still 13 lengths behind ICE COOL (NAP), whose close second to Candle Island is the best recent form on view especially as he was in the lead at this trip.
