Verdict

A low-grade handicap in which Golden Days should make a bold bid for a hat-trick despite a 7lb rise for a neck victory at Gowran. Cherry Bloom beat a big field over 6f at Fairyhouse but had earlier been well beaten behind SWISS ARMY OFFICER at Roscommon. The latter is hardly consistent but has a chance at the weights if putting it all together. Amemri couldn't handle heavy ground when sent to Ffos Las and should do better on today's going while Colin Keane's presence on Praying Mantis catches the eye.
