In depth

Verdict

BAHLWAN was successful at the Curragh last month and finished runner-up over track and trip last time. He looks capable of winning again off his current mark and can confirm running with Powersville and Glow Worm. The latter has subsequently gone close over 6f at the Curragh while Seanjohnsilver finished in front of the inconsistent Snow Patch when scoring at Tipperary but has been raised 9lb. That's Mad has been thereabouts lately but Bambari has proved best on the all-weather so far.
