Verdict

BE MY HERO continues to frustrate and was having his 14th start when reaching a place for the first time at Wexford. This looks a very moderate handicap and he can finally get off the mark. Jinxs Link was having only his fifth start when running easily his best race to date at Ballinrobe but Littletwinklestar was beaten 23 lengths when fourth in a Tramore maiden. Natural Breeze finished runner-up three times here in 2021 but ran poorly on his return from a long absence earlier this year. Littel Flour was engaged in the 1.45 here yesterday.
