Verdict
This looks an ideal opportunity for OUR RACHAEL (NAP) to get off the mark over timber. Tony Martin's mare has only been placed once in seven starts over obstacles but arrives here on a hat-trick after scoring at the Curragh and Down Royal on the Flat. She's likely to prove much better than an 89-rated hurdler and should win this. Tough But Honest made a bold bid on testing ground at Listowel where a last-flight error didn't help while the veteran Jack The Hat has been alternating between hurdles and fences and running well in both. He's 10lb lower over timber so could prove a threat along with Beneficial Society, a winner at Ballinrobe in July.
