Verdict

Pitlochry gave trouble in the stalls on his Naas debut but not in the race where he came late to collar the warm favourite Catamount. He will have made subsequent progress and shouldn't be dismissed, despite a big weight. Tarcisio led at this trip when successful over 7f at Limerick and though the form hasn't worked out too well it was still a decent effort and better can be expected. Greek Canyon has had a break since scoring on soft ground at Cork in May when Tarsisio was behind. He's definitely on the short-list while Lady Pastrana will have no problems reverting to this trip despite scoring over an extra furlong at Roscommon. BAHAMA SPIRIT has progressed with every run and it was a very impressive effort at Fairyhouse on Sunday. The talented Samantha Bell takes the ride again and Kevin Prendergast's filly can complete a quick double.
