In depth
Verdict
A modest hunter chase that should go to Tricky Trevor, O'Flaherty's, Eastern Point and Iconic can fight out the places. The selection was always fighting a losing battle against Little Farmer over course and distance last time but did well to go down by just three lengths. He won a hatful of points in the north last year, but struggled for his new connections until they changed his training regime prior to a win in a point earlier this month, now he's back to his best he will be difficult to beat. The opposition doesn't appear too strong and Eastern Point, Iconic and Jazz Night do have form in years gone by but O'Faherty's could be the one to chase home the Tricky Trevor after showing signs of improvement last time.
