Verdict

Line Out deserves the utmost respect as he wasn’t winning out of turn last time in a Killarney maiden but he is possibly too close in the weights to ZANJABEEL. Though raised 4lb since only beaten a short-head at Kilbeggan, Gordon Elliott’s four-year-old has been in cracking form over hurdles and on the Flat lately and looks the one to beat. Silent Sun still has joint bottom weight despite winning at Limerick and there are also possibilities about Dixie Highway but Caridadi remains winless over timber.
