Verdict

The Black Devil hasn't performed badly in five starts over timber but has changed stables and has a penalty for his victories on the Flat. The four-year-old Knight's Parade is also penalised having won four times on the level including at Tramore last month. He looks certain to get involved though RAM THEM ALL looks the one to be on. Pat Fahey's charge has progressed with racing and, after a very good run behind Clondaw Warrior at Down Royal, was caught in the dying strides by Millie Le Bach over 2m4f at Galway and this trip should prove ideal.
