Verdict
Sar Oiche is slowly dropping in the ratings and Jim Bolger will find an opening for him soon. Colin Keane rode a peach of a race on board MANOROV two weeks ago but Connor King's claim should come in useful this time as his mount is 9lb higher in the weights. The five-year-old has really found his form and a quick double looks on the cards. Mount Flora looks a big threat from her lowly rating, despite her two recent efforts being over further, as she probably has more to offer. Pepparpot ran very well on his return from a very long absence three weeks ago and, though likely to be seen to better effect when back over hurdles, could run well here at a big price. Lord Kenmare isn't in the best of form but is on the same mark as his last victory just over a year ago.
