Verdict
Richard Fahey bids for a third consecutive win and relies on BALLYMORE CASTLE. The latter failed to score last year but slipped down the weights at the end of the season and should be in the mix off his current mark. Hoof It recorded his only win since 2011 when successful here in September and remains 4lb higher while stablemate Perfect Pasture is best on the all-weather nowadays. Joey's Destiny went close at Goodwood off a similar mark in October but George Cinq has done all his winning so far over longer trips. New Bidder notched-up a double at Ayr in July and is 7lb higher today while Flowers On Venus is progressing well having gone close at Southwell on his handicap debut. Mass Rally ran well over track and trip in October off his current mark and Adam's Ale could make the frame.
