Verdict
Goodthynemilan won over fences before finishing second over hurdles at Limerick but this is tougher and Whats In It For Me reverts to hurdling today having placed over fences at Clonmel. Battling Spirit steps back up in distance after scoring over 2m4f at Fairyhouse and Seskinane was placed over the same distance at Wexford recently. But MICK THE JIVER (NAP) was beaten only two lengths over course and distance in a tougher handicap than this last time and Eoghan O’Grady’s charge should go close again with a similar effort.
