Verdict
Abyssinian finished closer when third at Tipperary a fortnight ago while Walk Me Home also wears the McManus colours and represents last year’s winning yard. The latter and Twilight Girl won at the same Wexford fixture back in August but both failed to complete last time and SILVER PLANEUR makes most appeal. She finished well clear of the rest when second at Ballinrobe on her return to action and looks capable of scoring off her current mark. Whatsyourstatus and Highest Benefit have been chasing and can race off lower marks back over timber today while Ballyadam Destiny posted his best effort so far in first-time blinkers at Listowel last month and could be in the mix.
