Verdict
Several of these arrive in form but only HATCH HALL won last time when giving Esharaat 8lb and beating him just under a length over the track and trip three weeks ago. The winner had previously scored over timber at Cork and is in such good form that he can confirm the form and go in again. Sea of Blue looks a big threat after almost losing her maiden tag here last week when just failing to overhaul Brokopondo. That was over 1m2f and she's having her first start over this trip but should be suited. Our Rachael was making her handicap debut when staying on strongly into second over 1m2f at Navan and Willie McCreery's lightly raced filly looks one for the short list. Locus Standi ran easily his best race to date when runner up here three weeks ago and with further progress likely he can make the frame.
